Mumbai will eat me!

Mumbai, always have been the city of dreams, and it was surely for me too,

My dreams and my aspiration called me to fly over the starless vacuum sky 

so engulfed I wanna be in the city night.

though every city in the  night has the beauty of the newly bride,

but Mumbai was different, it was the breathing, dancing bride!

Forgetting the loved one’s , I loved the burp of the city,  

I just wished to be eaten by MUMBAI.

and reside in it’s core.

Silly me. I forgot the city is also made by the people like me, 

Well, I thought people like me..but unfortunately people so unseen by me 

Chirpy me, beaming with joy, trotted first step in the horizon.

wanted to see the real city with joyful robots alive.

and a magnificent weaved dream path ahead

But the heinous road scared me, lurking tongue and the wolf eyes, hovered all around my sight. 

At some times I couldn’t believe, I am in Mumbai, but I forgot people surrounds everywhere.

Still I wanna move and complete my runway 

but each forward stop of mine, made the leachers jump thrice ahead.

I am scared now. I am scared Mumbai will eat me now.

Now i see  the reality. Mumbai is the pit of joyful robot but not alive.

I will soon fall for the pit like others, who does’t sleep in the all time awake city.

Happy am I for the Fulfilled dream or perplexed am I for the nightmare being my dream?
