TIME BE APPROPRIATE!



Naveen Malhotra April 09, 2022
TIME BE APPROPRIATE!
I don't know
I don't know
Why I, why I
Keep coming here
Why I wanna
Why I wanna
Keep it alive
What for this wall
I write, I write
Is it a fun?
Is it a delight?
Is it frustration?
Is it repercussion?
I don't know
I don't know
I know certainly
It's not my right
It's not my destination
I don't, I don't
Belong here
Belong nowhere
Wanderer!
Yet to traverse
Many a trail
Many a trail
Without fail
Yet to cross
Many a precipice
Many a precipice
Gambling life
With a dice
Free of affection
Free of interaction
Free of attraction
Free of distraction
Free of everything
Perish on the way
Unknown
Uncared
Uncremated
Time Be Appropriate!
