Still Exists

A fragile night collapses during the numbing silence

Moments are erased from the memory

Time slackens its hold over the submerged world

Laboured breaths curse the slow progress of life

Once it was a free world, now the emotions are confined

Experimentation with the artificial truth

Natural beings are eager to synthesise random patterns

Ecstasy, untruths are delusional drugs

Insincere remedies, unhealed souls, more suffering

Unimaginable atrocities through the ages

Grave human follies demolished eternal souls

Watching over the unfolding derangement, again

~Amitav
