by Akansha Singhal
I hop and jump on the floating stones,
stones sit on those sharks.
A step and all bones,
when its not even dark.
Dark greens far away I can see
and I am destitute
the only way to get free,
free I want to be but still solitude.
I am not alone right now
now challenges admire, laugh on me.
That make my frown steps slow.
Scared to touch that tree.
Trees there thorny and thick.
Wild makes them the air.
And still I’m stuck on eighth brick,
bricks are more than spare.
Its time, no time to stay.
i want to fly and fly.
Fly higher than sharks and stones play.
Destiny and I say a goodbye.
