Everyone became busy with the distractions
With shut eyes, they followed a voice that lured the heart
For they wished to stretch fate towards comparisons
Affected by ennui, life is swept away by the waves
Sleepers induced with common dreams, expunging reality
Expressionless faces greet with a contrived smile
Living in arid islands, the soulless directives keep control
Inconsistency is the new rhythm that prompts them to sway
In the world of metaphorical sleep, everyone is delirious
Only reason to escape to the world of solitary existence
To dream of pure bliss and without the interference
Away from faulty inferences and diabolical narratives
Just leave a clue for those who want to change life’s course
Or else, keep on travelling along the path of solitude
Chronicle the journey and keep the pages for posterity
Universe will narrate the truth and a traveler’s realisation©
