The Escapist
Copyright © SHRAVANI MUKHERJEE
Just like the retreating ocean’s tide
Just like the sunset in vanilla twilight
Just like the rainbow after a colourful sight
Just like the friend with whom you had a fight
Just like the song when you lose the melody
Just like the pain after a remedy
Just like the fear at every new challenge
Just like the youth as there advents age
Just like the crescent before new-moon
Just like the overhead shadow after noon
Just like the lover after his promise
Just like the life after death hath kissed
To be gone in search of respite
Away far away, O the escapist arise!
