Fear Not
Fear Not
Anurita Hazarika
My daughter,
Sleep doesnt trust
My veins burst,
My ribs break.
My knuckles crack
A Shadow bumps
On my breast it thumps.
Fear not my daughter,
Stay safe in me
Born you will soon be.
Aita , Borma all here unite,
To welcome you against all tide
Let me chase the Shadow to shatters
Create space for you that matters.
Fear not my daughter
As we chase the Shadow to faraway miles,
I can feel your move, it smiles
Welcome!
Shadows, all numbed
The wait is over,
You and I are foreover
And a new dawn is here.
