The Vanishing Dews.. Poem by AKSHAYA KUMAR DAS

The Vanishing Dews...
........
Drops of Dew rain as night falls,
My Soul waiting for your glistening eye balls,
I did not know when I fell asleep,
Dreamt of caressing your long hairs in my deep sleep,
Accidentally woken from the depth of slumber,
In my somnabulistic walk I dash against you dear,
As My slumber breaks there,
I find no one there,
Cry at my sorry state of the affair,
Was asking myself why did you promise dear?
Caught by the cold weather,
Cursing my foolish dreams of being with her,
Many nights pass in between,
You no longer visit the promised den,
Languishing in the monotony,
Facing inside a silent mutiny,
Drops of the dew vanishing before eyes,
You do not come as per promise,
At times I wonder at your behaviour,
Why make false promises pretending failure,
Console my self with your sweet words,
Accepting your failure to arrive in the promised woods,
The gimmick of the glistening balls,
Vanishing dreams before the night falls,
.....
