The End Of The Tale Poem by Vivek Haldar

After the princess was gone
i became a culprit of her soul
her face kept coming back to me
again and again
but i couldn't do a thing
about it
i wanted to flee away
into the mists of darkness
but my thoughts never went out of her
I wanted to write but my pen
was unable to hold my words
i wanted to go away
and leave my weakened heart over there
but i couldn't take my soul
which was engraved in that place
i wanted to delve deep into the
deep blue ocean
but fear encroached my mind
That day the night never arrived
and the day didn't happen
the nature was playing its trick on
my mind
and i was just its victim
she kept torturing me
and my thoughts kept getting inside me
i wanted to stand up
and shout at the top of my voice
but, i was weak, frail and unhealthy
i was unliving the life of a living dead
too many curses were upon me
and i was still there
bearing no life forms
as i sat there
no one came for my help
i was just looking at them
through those pages
but they too left me
and i was all alone in that deadly land
as i slept i saw her walking towards me
i wanted to know where she was?
but, she didn't speak
she whispered in my ears
but i didn't understand them
i kept following her
to the end of the valley
i wanted to follow her
to the end of that dream land
but that thing never happened
i was out of that dream
and when that happened
i was just sitting there
dreaming with my open eyes
i didn't have the heart to write
and thus i rested upon
and as my days passed
my life streched
in the hope that some day
i will be unhurt unfurled
and unlively
but that day never came
i wanted to leave that land
as soon as possible
but the princess never left me
she kept clutching my spirit
with her
my eyes were weak
they stopped seeing anything
and when i went around seeing things
her thoughts chased me
like wild dogs
she was all over into my mind's eyes
that day when i was breathing fast
a pair of hands appeared
i wanted to know
who was that
but my eyes hurt
and my life burnt
my whole life kept travelling through
my eyes
i wanted to sleep cosily
into that dark deep slumber
but those hands stopped me
i was amazed
surprised by those cruel intentions
i kept peering at those hands
but vision was out of my reality
with my unfocussed vision
i looked at the face
his voice seemed familiar
but i never recognised him
the peasant boy kept asking for his princess
but i never had the heart to tell her
i never told that i was the culprit
and i should be punished for
what i have done to them
i kept silent and those hands went away
i stood there
as i was ready to take that deep plunge
but she carried me away
in the hope that i will live for her
and from that day on
i lived on
i traveled all along
and with this, my pen went along
and my darkness died a silent death
along with my dead heart
