By Hillol Ray
From the adolescent years, I have always haunted,
The keys to open and close the doors of my sleep-
But without a success, my eyelids closed obscurely,
And opened in mornings to find comb and hair clip!
Sad days’ requiems I sing alone at hapless times,
But sometime the old crooners merrily chime in-
My ears like radars turn back and forth,
To make all my laments fling the scene!
Horned moon in brooding sky plays a tune,
And my memories crawl to listen to lullaby-
The pillows whisper softly on my shoulders,
And tell the dream will soon land on my eye!
False delight of sleepless night sobs or weeps,
And asks me if I ever will grow up to be old-
Or haunt for keys to open and close the doors of my sleep,
With yawn or sigh, under moonlit sky, would it be retold?
