Rooftop
Rooftop


She was whispering in my ears
I overlooked it for these remaining years
Unlike the others, I never fell behind
Then I mistook, in her vital time.
I advised her to go out and socialize
Instead she replied that she doesn't want the enemies to rise
I watched her undergo the sufferings
Which she didn't let it in our between.
She used to pen down some poems
Which were inked on a crumpled vintage paper
She always kept them aside our story
And rearrange them in her cupboard.
I failed in responding to her signs
Even after being a partner in crime
She was found hanging to the rooftop and
A chair slipped off under her feet, lying on the floor.
Still a numb sadness on the face not ready to get off her
I took her in my arms and
Cried my eyes out on her shoulders
Her body was cold as the breeze in winter.
I regret on myself, I should've learned those whispers
I shouldn't have left her home alone
I should've thrown away the cord
I'm a disgraceful person.
