Disappear

Dust of the dunes-

Drifted thoughts!

Dunes in the desert.

Dampened dreams-

Dragging the dead desires.

Disappear, she wants to-

the void.

Scars on the mind. 

Past that haunts.

Glochids painless-

Plucks some thorns-

Droplets of blood-

On the desert floor.

Dried quickly, not to be healed.

Healed to be dead.

Dust hurled over the dunes.

And she was nowhere to be seen...

Broken

 I saw a mirror.

Bright and shiny.

And yet, some scars.

I touched them.

A silent scream,

Echoed deep within.

'...must have been tough'

I thought! 

My reflections.

In pieces. 

Of words- I never liked.

Of a lost home.

Of a new world-

Of becoming a stranger.

Of being lost!

I saw myself.

Bright and shiny!

And yet, some scars.

Was it me or that mirror?

Something felt-

Broken!
