I DON'T WAIT

I dont wait for anything any longer
The falls (of tears) which used to flow…
 flow no longer
I dont wait for anything any longer

In the village of eyes,
Dreams used to come in the nights,
Which flowed when touched,
Which spoke when spoken to
But how can one trust flowing dreams
I don’t wait for anything any longer

The days when you were here,
My eyes had sunshine
Now there are cobwebs everywhere,
Even they are going to leave me soon
The soothingness after pain t
hat used to be there…
is there no longer
I don’t wait for anything any longer
The falls which used to flow…
flow no longer
I don’t wait for anything any longer
