I Have Left The World

I have left the world long ago, When the first ray of the sun In the morn ceased to brighten Up my irises and created rainbows. There was no time table For paying insurance premium, Renewing driving licence, meeting Deadlines and staying online to Meet the friends living abroad. My soul is moving in a void The body is lying silent in a world Where trains don't move upon rails, Where the hawkers don't push carts And shout at house wives standing At the doors gossiping. Rose plants are not tended. Weeds try To reach me below in search of their enemy. I have left the world long ago. Creepers have occupied the places On the stairs where I used to sit and Watch the men passing by the gate Whistling songs from old movies.
