When Time Engulfs My Way

Must read

Sylvia Razopadhyay

When time engulfs my way, shattering shards of happiness
Either peace or sorrow, let it crop up the moment
Day or night, let it wrap the instant
Regardless
What could it be; let it engulf my sentiment?

Either thought or memory lets it blend with pain
Anguish or torment, let it penetrate the heart
Nonetheless
What could it be, let it chomp through my passion?

My time, hard as stone
My moment, soft as velvet
Either time or moment, let it chomp through my soul
Nevertheless
What it could be, let it engulf my way
No evidence to prove the moment submerged
No witness to endorse the immersed way
As if, I let to dispatch, secretly
As if, I welcome shots of peace,
When time engulfs my way, itself
Shattering shards of happiness
Leaving behind my footprints
