Life's Dualities

Where is that constant line?

By Maryam BatoolPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

When the velocity is constant; acceleration becomes ZERO!

Can't a movie have 'No-Villain', but a sole HERO?

Variable is my life; Sometimes it dims, at others, it Shines

Why can't we just smile? Where is that constant line?

When there's LOVE, It seems there's HATE too

When I wrote 'FRIENDS', it said, "Write ENEMY too"

Why are there so many antonyms? Can anyone define?

My life was happy too; Where is that constant line?

What starts with "Hi", doesn't even end with a "Bye"

Who introduced "Laugh"— someone already taught us "Cry"?

Truths and Lies are not brothers; I decline!

I hate all negative words, Where is that constant line?

Life's smooth path; The trail of infinite smiles

Can't keep itself clean; not for a couple of miles

I hate this acceleration; I need happiness to align

Where did that joy go? Where is that constant line?

Author's note:

My physics is really bad, but that's the only thing I understand. "Nothing is CONSTANT whether it's a motion or a situation; the rule is the same"

I hope everything gets better for everyone. Life often brings moments beyond our control. You try so hard to mend what's broken, but the tools aren’t in your hands. So, I wish for everyone to keep smiling and cherish every moment—whether it’s constant or variable.

Thank you for reading <3
