I was thirsty
like a barren field
of harsh summer...
You showered your love
like the spring rain.....
It doused me deeper...
night sky was starry...
you painted my world ...
hugged my trodden soul...
Every blow of wind diffused
Your warmth...
I believed in
every breath of yours..
Everything was too bright...
it blurred ....
and my soul couldn't
see the demon delving ..
the claws grasping....
Time changed....
brightness faded...
the lies that dropped
in every word of yours
lost its magic....
Those lies tormented my soul
but it made it brighter...
just like burning of gold...
I realised ....
wandering in the Oasis
was just a dream...
but it was a mirage..
