Your Eyes

by Ramendra Kumar

Like the eyes
Of an ensnared fawn
Your eyes
Dilated in agony
When I murmured
'It's all over.'

Last evening,
Your eyes
Caressed
Every line
I wrote -
Each syllable
A poem
Of fragment hopes.

The twin oasis
Of your eyes
Pools of sorrow
Reflecting
My hurt,
My pain.

Your love
A pale shadow
Fading
With me
Into oblivion.

Your eyes
A mute witness
To
My annihilation,
My death -
Every minute,
Every moment.
