SOMETHING I LOOK AT-188

THE COUNTDOWN-14

When you lose one of your wings 
Your ability to fly gets curtailed 
No more you remain 
A free bird in the open sky 

When you look outside 
You find no room to manoeuvre
With your space sadly squeezing 
You look inside 
Only to find your feelings 
And emotions in chains 
All that you loved and cherished
In a golden cage

Seasons come and go 
You fail to distinguish the change in colour 
With nothing to look forward to 
You remain in yourself 
Your last voyage in the blue ocean 
Hunt you time and again

Your craving to spend more and more time
With your own diminishes 
The reality of life comes in front 
You calculate what have you got in return 
For all that you put in over the years 

The saddest part of life comes alive 
And you being the sole spectator 
Witness the whole of it 
With none with
None accompanying
