Leaving the same old gate with routine check up
Reaching home only to make sure I have a sleep,
Waiting for alarm again to wake me up
It seems I am not crossing timesheet
But time skidding under my feet
When I hear the music that bring memories of past,
When I see same old lisp in school goers clad in white, blue, red--
I feel it had been ages past
Images blurred, memories cobwebbed
Life hadn’t got wings
My heart no more sings
Wings have been snapped off, bird being caged
Wondering where the wonders are, life once staged!
Life is not passing by, it is over running
Two days when there is something heart can demand
But mind reprimands…
Catch a sleep, wake up -- sip some wine
I ask why?
My heart doesn’t shy..
Says it all—
I want to live in oblivion..
Lost in labyrinths—
Fear to live on own terms,
driven by mundane pursuits
Happy falsehood, Dreadful truths!!
