Dark nights without stars aren't that empty as they look !
I made clouds with my sweat and some tears,
Above which I kept my words and verses.
My nights thus, may seem dark and void.
Though I kept them beneath clouds of nothingness,
Stars tried to blink their weak eyes slowly with efforts,
But darkness gulped those sparks all the time, no wonder;
I used to keep some black holes too there where my stars rested !
Verses, my stars, needed a strong wind to light their light,
With black hole's heat and darkness themselves !
There came a wind, carrying thousands of galaxies.
It ignited my stars, they could come step tiny steps.
My stars are learning now, to walk straight and shine bright.
Their raw edges are being sharpened every single day.
Their path is being watched by starry night, all the way.
Now my stars travel distances to reach your eyes
Some ears are open to my verses and
Some hearts are open to my feelings.
Sweat and tears now are
composing ink for me.
Brushing my smile, breeze still blows,
Somewhere some verses maybe
Shining beneath clouds !
