Don't give up, yeah?

Soujanya Hediyal

Free verse
Drunk nights and faded memories...
New people and old faces...
The kind of reminiscence smell carries...
Beauty of seconds passing in phases...

Getting through the headaches and pains...
Sleep letting you escape...
Waking up to new insights and gains...
Hunger killing you while your thoughts reshape...

Overthinking and sharing warmth...
Trying to find solace in someone-anyone... Decisions to make helping you go up-north... Nothing not complicated...ahuh...not so fun..

The peace of solitude...
The need of acknowledgement and affection... Oh what confusion to the multitude...
Life is fu"king with us to perfection...

Conversations with no sense of time...
Words that change your life...
Silences that hold value and love mime... Everything here has you by the knife...

Don't give up, yeah?
