Innocence

She’d built her walls of belief around her,

Silently sitting within the dark insides ….
Till dust enveloped her static silence…

And all colours faded slowly,

Cold, silent death was near….

But one fortunate day,

A razor sharp ray of light stroke through the inconceivable darkness…

Her eyes blurred for a moment or two,

As she saw someone breaking her grey walls…

In disbelief, she ignored it

As another false imagination of hers…

But the light grew stronger and stronger,

Warming her cold heart….

So she stood up uneasily,

And saw him smiling…

Confused between the hypocritical lies she’d known 

And his innocent smile

She stared at him blankly…

But bit by bit he broke all her walls,

And made her see something she couldn’t

Rather didn’t want to…

With light and warmth, 

All dust was washed away…

And all colours came rushing to her……

Her once deserted heart now rumbled with excitement,

Life was breathed into her

As she swayed to the rhythmic melodies of her own….

It took long

Till she realized it was all real….

But oh, how much he meant to her,

How grateful she was for him to have walked in,

She wondered what magic he’d possessed

For she remained the enchanted soul around him….

Her laughter and smile had returned 

After a long dry spell….

And it was difficult for her to believe

She was “indeed” living…..

So she wrapped her arms around him, 

And silently stared at his innocent smile

Her cheeks flushed red

And she smiled her endless long smile….

And together they walked

Through the flowered golden path of bliss….
