Echoes that are never heard…..

There was a time when we used to share mischievousness, ecstasy, sorrow and what not

The room used to be filled with life

But not anymore!

Room these days, craves for someone to spell out even a single word

You’d know only if you’ve been in that room

But you’d never know that

I’ve heard that room rehearses her echoes to make it bolder

To make other people pay attention at her

To strength the memories she had, the happiness she shared

But she only made far to

Voice of silence, voice of the mourning

Voice of never fading echoes

Every now and then, the wind blows passing by the room

But this one time,

When curtains in the room billowed in the breeze

The first breeze to hit,

Brought news of the demise of the people

People who used to live in that room

Every day, now and then, I’ve heard that room cries in silence

Cries that are never heard and never fading

The neighbors complained, sometimes soundless echoes are heard

Echoes that persist for longer period, whose time you could never figure out

Echoes that were enough to make you cry and feel the pain

Every day, now and then, I’ve heard that room cries in silence

With echoes that are never heard and never fading
