THE ALIENS

Melodies fade and the music dies

The voices seem so far away;

There's neither darkness nor any light

In the twilight zone of time

The colors, which once looked so bright,

Seem jaded now and without a life

The smiles are forced and words are few

Aloofness marks man's milieu .

Oceans roar in unspoken words

Waves lash against the soul

Hiding deep within itself

Secrets yet untold

Eyes, which weathered many a storm,

Try hard not to give in to tears

Silently, without a word,

They are fighting back nameless fears

Time stands still

The suppressed sigh

Says the day is fading

Bid good bye.

 ……………………….doel
