Memories fade along with the forgotten shadows
An unwritten consensus to walk off hand in hand
All activities pause to prepare an unknown journey
There are no conclusions only vague interpretations
Fate treads past many hindrances and delusions
Original dreams are coercively locked in a vault
Staring strenuously at the unnatural hues of life
Synthetic dyes are infused in dreams and ambitions
Eerie feelings dance enthusiastically in the mind
When the heart feels delirious from the sudden rush
False facades are transformed with plush designs
Shadows emerge at the darkest hour of crisis
Mirrors turn away and distort the reflection of life
Life fades away unceremoniously along with memories©

I know… so true… sad! This one, too, resonates with me. Thank you.

Wish, melancholic times fade away soon and life guide the soul to happy destinations.
Good to hear from you, Anne.

I’m quite a stubborn soul so while I may sit in silence sometimes, I remain, watching from the sideline, not resigned but merely resting to revitalize… 🙂

Let’s rephrase it as ‘deeply introspective’ so you can analyze the intricate details and from minute observations decide on the path to choose. 🙂

Hello my friend.
Truth has to be spoken, and until sorted out, life cannot journey towards the right direction.
