Analysis of Before I Finally Fall Asleep
Jils P V 1995 (Kerala)
I stood naked under the shower,
feeling the chills
running through my spine.
It is too cold;
where all the warmth has gone!
I feel too small,
For this too big world.
The white plain walls are
bleeding blues all over me.
Numbness in the heart is growing heavier
at each thought passes by.
All the allys are leading
to the same old town,
forsaken and deserted;
dreams are shattered in its
narrow passage ways.
There lays a statue,
naked and beautiful,
I want to carress it's beauty, but not today;
Now,
let me have a cup of coffee
with you my friend!
Before I finally fall asleep!
