Fade Away!

Up high on the hills I lie

With eyes open wide 

And grieves aside

The night pities its son

Whose soul hath grown numb

And the least of not spiritually dumb,

Stare at the stars with eyes

Which the luster of life belies.

Dancing to their wink

Is the blood in my veins?

Swinging and shaking to let all those sink

Amidst a thousand holy reins.

The ‘those’ I call the memories of thee

Or dare I call them those of we

Weaving together a million dreams,

Of a life prettier than all mystical streams

Let them sink

All but in the time of a blink 

Deep down 

And with the least frown 

Fade may thee

Into an abyss so deep and wee

That of the rare amnesiac lee!
