Analysis of hide n seek
Now wanna play hide n seek.......
Death is final
And life is sumtotal
of many deaths i die every day
Life changes it course as a river do
And I could see
serpentine course
my life instantaneously do.
Learnt to be humble
but life taught me harshly
to be arrogant.
I traversed every footstep
towards life with much zeal n zest
but to find it disowning
and abandoning me more swiftly.
Nosedived in the oasis
whilst in the hot desert
called life
and ended up with
mouthful of sand
As it was an optical illusion or mirage.
I promised you if you come one step forward
I will run to you
if you take a step back
I will disappear for you.
The bell has rung
i can't go on thinking nothing's wrong.
Running out of patience and breaths
but i promise i will be back to love you again....
