ശംഖ്

When the world grows still for you,

Hold your breath tight,

In a bubble afloat across timeless times,

And think your heart out

For a way out.

If you meet with a butterfly which you long lost,

Hold on to it’s wings too strong,

And remember not to let it weep at your worries.

Sometimes, it might remind you of a past,

Where green pastures lit with dews,

welcomed your mornings!

If the world grows still for you,

Watch the time take shape of a butterfly,

And let you soar!
