Breath feels heavy
By Nik Rajput
Smile also sighs.
Life seems like a question to me.
I look fine in the mirror
Youth seems like a waste.
four silent walls of the house
I feel like the pride of the dead.
frankly i take my breath away
Even now it feels like a burden.
close my eyes and open my sleep
Then there is the sound of death.
Now this sky rain
Even drops of fire start fire.
Know which force has the effect
Days seem shorter and nights longer.
just like this one to me
Seems like a deadly habit.
