With You in Isekai
written by: Arijit Saha
An apocalyptic dream you say
One you and I would walk always
The silence creeps and the darkness nears
So I hold you close to stop your tears
It’s 7 am and I’m wide awake
You beside and my arm your bed
The light peeps through the tent we built
The river’s near with patches of silt
Your face is all that keeps me calm
So I caress it with my bandaged arm
Last night we were lucky enough
The dogs went wild but I fought them off
One had my arm and one had my leg
Oh boy it hurt so I chugged a peg
Suddenly I hear a scream
With a sudden snap
I’m out of my dream
I'm not a poet and don't aspire to be one, but that 'someone' whom I knew since Kinder Garten inspired me to write a piece.
