Each day is a ritual
& so is each night
Birds flying to paint dawn on the skies
Moon seeking shadows
to don over a fortnight
only to shed them over the next
Shadows tied to our feet
growing at dawn
fleeing at twilight
Reflections bound to our eyes
floating on water
flying all around as we move
No, nothing changes with time
but nothing is the same either
as we live on
hope is a superstition
& so is fear
But unlearning instincts
was never an easy task
virtues & vices
obsolete definitions
pronouncing us guilty
Smiles of contempt staining faces
Wait! I smell deception
Sorry- just my cologne
Just pull the blinds down
and go for the kill
What they know not, would not hurt them
don't be forthright
or be damned
Yes, everything changes with time
but everything is still the same
coz we live on

not all shadows are dark
not all smiles are deceptions
not all people are ruthless
not all birds want to reach the sky
not all reflections are blinding
not all moments are binding
not all days should be forgotten
not all things should be hidden
not all people should be avoided
not all things should change
not all chases are endless
not all desires out of reach
not all want to leave and go
some do coz you refuse to follow...
just pull the blinds down....
and put off the lights....
they won't know...and they won't see....
why be superstitious...why be afraid....
why to make a choice....
just live on...
nothing's going to change...nothing 's going to be same...
who knows what's right what's wrong..virtues & vices....obsolete definitions
