My Eyes Will Dream till They Close Poem by Sumita Jetley

because there is a fire
that keeps going stronger
with me

I might just one day step out
of my body
to see who am I

I would touch myself
with awe
interest

just to see
who am I

I would seduce myself
to tell

why am I here
where I am heading to
and what is the theory that
is at work
so salient
so silent
so like that
so like me
my own
resides in me
presides in me


I am going crazy
and yet I am sane

my eyes will dream
till they close

because the 'drift' will come
in between the bridge will close in
and I would shortly not blink

I'll die in-between

life
aah life
its mysteries
I would walk on the fiery fog
transquilised
bonds will be left behind

don't stop me
I won't stop
there is a call that I will answer
walking backward


reverse gear
