HYPERLINK- Part 2

(...From Part 1)

And then when the night darkens,
The stars brighten and the bats begin their day,
A cold wind blows and a chill runs down my spine;
Not only that I feel cold,
But I fear the arrival of the next episode- Your departure!

I still remember the day when those 'animals'-
I call them such as they are worth it:
Pierced their knives through your wonderful heart;
That was the end of the golden days of my life.
I would have loved to caress you;
And now... I fondle nothing but your lingering essence-
I couldn't just keep my word,
Of protecting you every second of your life.
I was helpless- I couldn't help you survive!

I know I am a traitor, a bad man:
That is the irony of fate.
I just saw your coffin being lowered into the grave,
Your lips... with a broad smile on them,
And your eyes... a demonstration of serenity.
That was so strange...!!!So very strange!!!

And now, amidst the droning buzz of mosquitoes,
I am just switching from one phase of my life to another.
No sooner than I close one chapter,
An unblocked pop-up or a link too hyper waits to be clicked on,
To be edited...or...at times, to be updated.
Deletion is prohibited!!!
That's the worst part of it.
You keep adding as much as you wish to...
But beware!- It can never be deleted,
Not even a little insignificant part of it.

Now, I find the moon just above my head...
Just like life, it has its own pace,
And is moving just as it wishes.
So I'd better move on too,
Leaving you behind as a hyperlink-
To be clicked during some other leisure,
To be revised again, anytime, later.
