Impatience

How impatiently the contemplations have been, from untidy thoughts the feelings have rooted themselves Spoiling the paradise! The involution, across the vast desertification Intense heat and scorched times, volatile clocks wait watch over the impatient dreamers Dealing with fatalism, the unpardonable mistakes; a display of destruction like a celebration A tumultuous existence, an existential extravagance causing the early death of dreams Infirm roots easily uprooted, … Continue reading Impatience
