Rushing Through

Thoughts skid across the awkward mind

There are times when the mind is preoccupied with insane ideas

Well, even the days could give up talking to the solitary one

They say, “Leave him alone, as we are not allowed to peek.”

Whether it is their curiosity or obstinacy to eavesdrop on someone

What would it take to teach some etiquette to the indiscreet days?

For which thoughts have to rush across and hide somewhere

Even at the risk of skidding and hurting their feelings

The days can sulk like an idiot, but some thoughts are private

Voices are not to be raised, because this argument would be futile

It is about creating that space which is impervious to allegations
