Surreal Name by Daipayan Nair
Surreal Name
you journey
through my name
through the rocky turns,
lost lanes, dark alleys, deep pits
some no way outs
of each letters
crossing rough ridges,
broken bridges between
generations,
all fatigued, now crossing
through the desolation
of my surname
where strolling through
the same ruins, you find
much to your disappointment,
I may be no different
then you reach the end
all worn out, devasted
find me there, standing,
with open arms
calling your name.
