LOST IN OZ. (An Original Poetry)

It starts,
like a young twinkle!
staggering like a juvenile fire,
encircled by thorns
We were but euphoria
basking in the warmest
of smiles.
but tomorrow
that births tomorrow,


We will be lost,
in oz.
imploding like debris!
strangers of fraternity.
but only memories
of water,
flowers and fragrance
in our parched hearts
cellotaped by mistakes


Our love,
once expanded into
dimensions!
like Orpheus and Eurydice
from earth into Hades
but words have died,
promises buried
on shallow ground
like accursed people


We're lost in Oz,
moments we remember!
are but moss and cobwebs,
sitting, fragments of tears,
threatening to spill,
on our very laps
paradigms and paradise
moving across
as we scowl past
foreigners with fermented love,
Spilled on the sands
