Its that you possess is being taken away
Leaving you with fewer senses and weaker consciousness
Distracted and disillusioned by the energetic contradictions
Now the feeble thoughts do not inspire any actions
Not vigilant anymore during the daily trials
Of a fate surrendered or snatched away by dark shadows
Watered down language cannot protest the accusations
Diminished path of weary travelers against a parched landscape
Sulking windows and resigned faces adorn worn out facades
Precious virtues hauled away from the homes every day
~Amitav
