Somewhere

Somewhere alone, lonely
sleeps a weary soul.
Somewhere silent, sobbing
dreams a defeated soul.

Somewhere far away
lies are being woven,
truth being distorted.
Sleep. But how?

So sad, so poignant, so true for so many of us. A lovely poem.

Dear Gauri,
Truthful,painful,realistic....
The threads of lie do not last long.The fabric woven of this threads soon gets torn unalarmed, leaving the weaver and the wearer ashamed....

Sad, though very expressive!

But, I suppose, time does allow us to forget painful things...
