We spent so many nights
crawling towards.
Never stayed in moments
and didn't hear the birds,
Hair went from black to white,
skin from fresh to pale,
eyes from clear to blurry.
Year after year
with Love, Hate, and Fury.
Sometimes
we hooked hands,
Sometimes
we made friends,
Sometimes
we were alone and tense,
Sometimes
we lost faith and adherence.
Year after year
while being born and buried.
Even after glancing
at evil and fairy.
Here we are, on the same path again.
We will be drowned in the aging lake.
Getting old is the worst
and also a good little break.
Year after year
we will meet again,
Maybe I will be brown or have a beard,
Or maybe we will be distant or maybe peers.
So this time let's take it slow,
We’ll sit beside and talk low,
Give a smile when the wind blows,
year after year, go with the flow.

Passionate about writing and inclined towards details and narration, I live for stories that bend the mind. I don't write just for the sake of it; I write when words appeal to me, when they feel inception-worthy.
