2 DOWN 1 TO GO


The last sip from the glass
Has an effect that lasts
It is the difference between a day of horrors
And a Night that ended with a blast

A battlefield of victorious fallen warriors
Is better than a man who lost alive
After all at home there is a mirror
Which shows lines of futile scars

A walking hunter with a prize catch
And Mourning a dead black horse
Stands taller than a man with relieved breaths
And a regretful sight of that lost wreath

Its 2 down friends and one to Go
Its blood on brows friends and sweats to flow
Its just men on the other side friends
And, A lot of ground for warriors to throw.

Your earlier works have lot of restrain in them, perhaps the underlying theme is that of struggle,this one speaks of courage...Are we seeing a gradual freedom in your writing?

Maybe so. As you grow you start realising about yourself.
