It is not the crowd, but those thoughts that connect them
They find their way in a sudden deluge of urgency
So eager to drown the mind with unnecessary wave
Eyes struggle to stay relevant and locate the nearest shore
Floating against the constant push to obscure a vision
Maybe the fear of depth has been written erroneously
Fear of surrender to the natural wave of thought
Patience is always arduous in the rush to move ahead
If not the coercion, there is always hands pulling you down
Rarely, they care to know the feelings and heartfelt narration
Not even flinching while conspiring someone’s decline
Azure and comforting feel of nature fail to heal macabre minds
There is that pleasure to watch someone become irrelevant
Sickening! Still, someone would want to know aberration of humans
It takes solitary will and immense strength to keep afloat
Being relevant for the Time that will be benevolent to this sacrifice
Communications will mature with blessings of cosmic elixir
Let’s not describe this dream as surreal and wait for truth to prevail
