Poetry spills from the cracks of broken heart, but flows from the one which is loved.

Acquitted of the vastness
They walk with the rain
Outwalking the acrid land
They ponder over heaven-lit lane
Snowy mountains
Ain't never flawless
Past them, I careen
Worth staring
Like a woman nubile
Chase me!
Demanded the moon
Catch me!
Yelled the albatross
Distant sunshine
Is something they poach
Persuading them to be my podium
I wondered, they'd never need a coach
Touching the clock
Perhaps, a million miles away
Lying in the sky
They promise me
They'd never say good-bye
