Do not fall, I repeat once again
DO NOT FALL
I’ll be the end of you, an end that’s infinite
I’ll drag you to my hell;
Drift you away from happiness
And then bring you along to this wretched emptiness
DO NOT FOLLOW
From here you cannot escape
You’ll be drowned in the high tides of this ocean
You’ll be left isolated
Starved to death,
Your voice will not echo in my ear
I’m a captivating mirage of a bliss
An illusion; Too deceptive, too anxious to come near
DO NOT LISTEN
DO NOT TURN BACK
Even if you hear me calling your name
The voice that enchants you might be cursed
Might bring you down,
Might take your soul away
DO NOT SAY
Never say those words again
As these words that gives you meaning
Might turn out to be your tragic end
This story is too dark
Like two parallels trapped in a cage
Ripping the bars: losing their grace
I WARNED YOU
To never care, to never come in my embrace,
Yet you’re here
Petrified by my tempting eyes
Left abandoned and totally terrified
There are no colors of love here
Only red diluting itself in grey
WHAT ARE YOU HOPING FOR?
Here all your hopes are poured down in drain
There’s no end to this dawn
There’s no light at the end of the tunnel
And that’s our fallen fate
What’s beauty to the artist
Is catastrophe to the other
This love for you is vicious,
A sweet poison dipped in chaos
– Shubhangi Rawat

Intense, a warning and a powerful summon at the same time, as vertigo and the fascination with the fall. What powerful lord of the ocean does this voice belong to? Thank you for this delicious and terrifying poem.

And yes, we all are powerful and strong just like the mighty ocean.
Metaphorically speaking, we all have some perplexed thoughts and complex feelings that remains loud yet silent just like the contradicting waves at the shore.

Your poem reminded me of Hades warning Orpheus not to look back for Eurydice when he went to retrieve her from the underworld.
