No Rain

Do you know
my Earth has developed cracks
Banyan and Peepal 
have grown inside those...

And do you know
my Sky has covered the earth?
Some days I feel
I am losing touch
with the earth, with soil
with grass and grasshoppers

Could you see
my Sky has covered my soul?
My Sky has engulfed me so much
that my everyday survival
is now a constant struggle
Could you see
you are destroying my "self"
and I am slowly becoming you

We have no happiness left
We are like sad sculptures
built in a grim city square
We can't even cry
We have no water left
We have no rain.
