Mumbai on a rainy day

Train reaches the station
Ends excitement
An unknown fear grips
Giving rise to anxiety

Black clouds hover over Mumbai sky
Terrible downpour floods the city lanes
A car met an accident
The injured driver taken to hospital

She pervades everywhere, everything
Black clouds and incessant rain
The damaged car and the injured man
The lonely moments and waking hours

The wind soaked with rain
Touches the body
That wets the mind and
Sets ablaze the heart

The unending rain and the stormy wind
Being incapable of extinguishing the fire within
