Oh My Despair!

Why do you keep following me?
Why can’t you give me a break?
Can you just stop speaking-
Stomping and squeaking on my heart?
Would you stop whispering?
To the depth of my soul?
Are you planning to spare me for a repair?
I bet it is your desire,
To bury me alive.

Are you my shadow?
Is that why you keep following me?
And for some reason, it feels that way.
I can’t touch you,
Or hear you.
But I can see you-
Behind my back ,
Waiting for devouring my whole self!

Here’s the weird thing though-
For you to be a shadow,
Light is supposed to be there, right?
Ofcourse, not a full bright light,
May be a spark of light, perhaps.
Is that the case?

Oh my Despair!
Can you just talk?
A word can do.
Can you tell me what you’re?
Or who you’re?
Can you do me a favor?
Stop haunting me like a ghost,
And reveal yourself to me.
I honestly don’t know what I would do, then.
But you know- curiosity.
Whoever/whatever you’re,
Can I know where you are?
Oh my Despair!!

And, do you mind?
Just leave me alone!
Atleast for a while.
I’m not asking,
I’m rather begging!
Just give me a break,
A day perhaps!

Dedicated to all of us who are in despair!!
