Nitin
I love reading your work. It is so unique.

Drinking till it shakes my knees
Injecting just to feel deep in me
Dreams are not worth a penny
Here in this house of misery

The imagery you have put into this poece is awesome. This stanza gave me chills.

Living in walls behind skies end
Exhaling clouds as you burn below
Surrounded by broken mirrors
Reflecting my life's echoes

This paints such a picture fo the minds eye. I can feel myself beside you looking down below the clouds. Hearing the echo's of life's screams.

Will my shadow hold these tears
With elegance as I cry
Your picture ever return my kiss
Just before hope's dream dies

Love the end. It leaves a feeling that alll hope is lost.
Excellent job!

Nitin,
This was an amazing poem. I caught myself re reading it to see if there was a line or stanza that could be interpreted a different way. There were many, although I am sure I did not understand it the way you meant it. But that is the beautiful thing about poetry, we can interpret it to fit our needs and guide us into recovery of what ever reason we have been led to feel moved by the words.

Drinking till it shakes my knees
Injecting just to feel deep in me
Dreams are not worth a penny
Here in this house of misery

^^ There was a time in my life I could relate so well with this stanza as my grief and depression overwhelmed me. I was miserable with my situation and I was the only one who could do anything to remedy it.

Empty eyes staring back at me
With stories to raise the dead
Thoughts waiting to be set free
Deep inside this hollow head

^^ How many nights I lay looking at a picture and wishing things could have been different, but somehow thinking everything was my fault and the thoughts bound me and kept me prisoner in my own home.

Living in walls behind skies end
Exhaling clouds as you burn below
Surrounded by broken mirrors
Reflecting my life's echoes

^^Seems as though at this time in my life I always felt as though I was always repeating the past and was destined to live a life of misery.

Will my shadow hold these tears
With elegance as I cry
Your picture ever return my kiss
Just before hope's dream dies

^^ This stanza was great. I have to admit Nitin that I tweaked it just a bit to read in my mind with how the misery ended for me. You have done a great job with this. I commend you on a wonderful write.
