Pink Floyd resurrected..

'Hey You' out there on the road
Sitting lonely in the cold..

Why can't You 'run', Why don't You walk?
Why don't You scream, Why can't you talk?
I know You Boy, You are not dumb
or have You become 'Comfortably Numb' ?

Take this boy; Fills You with Fire
You won't feel pain, no fear, no desire..
Trust me Boy; it will all end soon
Taking You to the 'Dark Side Of Moon'..

Is it Heavy inside? You feel like drowning..
Is there no one for You to 'Keep Talking'?
Do You see the Eclipse on the Sun?
Hands on the Gun, So badly You wanna run !!

Stay with me Boy, its 'Us and Them'
They are far ahead; They are far gone.
Don't kill 'Time', Calling out different Name
Know that They all are relatively same...

The wait is over..They had their chance,
You can Win now, Take your stance..
Make sure You don't play Their ugly game
Coz We are Us; We are not Them..

The darkness is so still; Night so long
Guess We should now break our song..
Come Back to Life; The sun will rise
To 'Shine on You Crazy Diamond'...

PS: This poem is my humble attempt to pay my tribute to Pink Floyd, the music band which influenced me the most.. The words in bold are some of the album names of that band..

Hang on..There's more..This poem truly depicts my state of mind..only if u can understand ;)

  9. Don't know that Pink Floyd band....but nice lines.
    How many times I read, I feel like..am missing something that u want to convey.

    "Don't kill 'Time', calling out different name
    Know that They all are relatively same..."

    Nice work.

    Lit the fire inside.
