Time takes huge bites of
Life like it’s a pie,
Leaving me with less to decide wrong from right,
But I hope god has forgiven me for all the lies
I’ve ever said.
And yet again it took the last day of the year,
For me to realize it has passed-
Everything seems more or less fine,
Yet here I am, my fingers crossed-
Tomorrow may be a hundred times more uncertain
the risks a thousand times higher,
I wonder what will keep me going,
I wonder when all the question marks will retire.
And yet again when the world is absorbed
In posting on social media, their most
aesthetically presentable bits of this year,
I sit on my bed with my eyes shut,
Rethinking the moments that round lens
Missed to capture-
It feels satisfying to rewind,
An embrace of reassurance to the future
To which I am blind,
A comforting pat on the back
To the life I’m blessed to call mine.
Accompanied with a shiver of registering
How a 365 day chunk is completed in my life.
