Fear of Disappearance

Fear of Disappearance

_____By Aranna Hasan Delwar.

Like the light of a newborn sun,

The beginning of life's journey was bright,

But as time passed,

All the light faded away.

Clouds of darkness came,

Drawing curtains of silence,

On my path, there's only the fear of getting lost

And an entire sky of suffocating stillness.

I have set myself on a path of loss,

As if I were told to lose.

I was supposed to be lifted by a helping hand,

But within the bonds of promises,

I was broken.

In my own way,

The light of my life has become

A flickering glow that fears extinction,

Like a streetlamp burning weakly

On a quiet midnight road.

The light on the path has dimmed,

Now there's only a torrent of darkness,

A distant fading

And endless despair.

I am being subdued,

My wings are broken,

The light on my path is extinguished

Into deeper darkness.

I wanted to walk hand in hand,

But even within promises,

My dreams are shattered.

The light of life is now faint

In the depths of stillness,

A light that is constantly being extinguished

In a wave of fear.

In the storm of life, a flickering light

Barely manages to stay aglow,

But within that light, you can see

Only darkness extending into the distance.

Now I am losing my way

Into the silence,

Waiting for a new light

That might never come.
