As I stand - By: Ashish Subedi

As i stand still with my shoulders high,

Rushes the wave of despair within

Countless words get crushed by rocks

Rocks which you carry in your lips.

As i sit gently in a couch

My Breathes changes its direction ,

\Breaking the silence of peace within

Peace which allows me to stand.

As i sleep softly in mattress

he hardeness in you keep me awake

By Scattering my pieces,

you reminds my dreams are over

as they are crushed by your rocks.
