Verses

As night intensifies,
Snuffs out the light within you;
As you shut your heavy, watery eyes,
Lay your troubled self to sleep -

I write a verse
To do battle with the night
That would restore your glowing light.

And when the dark night falls again,
Threatens to snuff out the light,
Just lay yourself down to sleep, my baby,
And verses shall I write.

- Abhishek Takle
