An Elegy of Veiled Tears

By Rohit Nāg

Of love transcendent, and the loved ones lost,

Retrospect, we navigate the cost,

Where grief's vast ocean whispers evermore,

For hearts that've tread this sombre shore.

In every verse, a silent, heartfelt tear,

An elegy for what the heart held near,

As love entwines, in fleeting moment lies,

Futility unveiled in muted cries. 

A river winding through the veils we sow,

Sorrow's cascade, tears unseen in the flow,

Yet death, that final dance , stark and cold,

Mocks us all and the lessons foretold. 

And death remains, our final circumstance,

We grasp at phantoms in the yearning chance.

A dance of moments in sorrow's stronghold,

In rhythmic sway, life's pain unfolds.

Reflecting on a journey through the surge,

The heart, one whole, now resonates a dirge.

A requiem whisper'd, an echoing pain,

The moonlight rises, a melancholic strain.
