TRICKLES OF TIME

"We Humans Are Mortal Being."

By Shafa IchwanusPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

1/

We are trickles of time

that fall off freely

together with the ticking seconds

leaving behind numbers.

Naked amidst the busyness

named as days...

We are wanderers of fate

that intertwine

tackle the rivers of destiny.

And never be able to digest

the future.

; Because we are just

God's Boats

which never the ends.

Looking for its own estuary.

2/

We humans are mortal beings.

'Always stammering spelling the word love in prayers'.

Going from one silence to another (feeling happy).

Then the world is like a mirage full of expectations.

We humans walk the road in thirst.

We are humans travel the distance,

on a path built from the desires

of others (feeling alienated).
