Today i bought life

At the cost of my continued strife

Between the virtuous and appalling at height.

Far end moved the unquenchable aspirations

With their declining contemplation

Rose from pain a different me

Receding incredulous diminishing in thee

Assembling shattered piece

Of lost belief

In your integrity.

Steep but precious is the price

Of my sacrifices

But I have bought the lifeless life.

Not chosen from heart and mind

Enforced it is as my plight.

Null and void has its way

Only seclusion will have its say

After your resignation from my lay ( a short narrative which can be sung)

Vestiges of these unsung songs

Will som.eday be sung all

Perhaps besides my dead soul.

Lo! Rest the caesura

For I put you in plethora

Who are unnoticed and unwanted

In my realistic world scintillated.
