Seated, but the mind is unsettled
Flurry of thoughts, seriously neglected
Earlier, during the unspent days
They never went away- resilient characters
Time abused by premature human illusions
Unrestrained speculations among other worries
Unprepared mind caught in a battle
Edges of innate patters are frayed
No new association with the evolving life
As if carrying the old flawed images
In the dull eyes; can’t blame the judgement
Of which the entire world is afraid
The word engages in a primitive struggle
Warriors there are none, only cowards
Inviting everyone to a war of perceptions
Death of time is not the promise of an escape
Entangled in a critical misjudgement
Everyone looks at the altered reflection furtively
All lies! Poseurs out there to deceive you
Lifecycle of abuses encircle insanely
More timidity exposes the offensive characters
Those who choose to settle down peacefully
Denied by the turbulent world
