Transition

And they put a mask over mask 

On the living object, we call ‘face’ 

Which keeps on falling off 

Time to time 

Just the way it suits them 

So every smile you see isn’t warm gesture 

It is the transaction

Of giving the little to get the bigger 

So Be cautious 

As your selfless self will drown you! 

Likewise

Not every time sweet word uttered

represents gesture of love 

That sweetener is poured into your dessert  

So you could inject poison for them 

In someone’s else sweets! 

So Be watchful 

While choosing the table you want to share with! 

Remember, 

Life isn’t the game of deciding wisely 

It is the game of deciding timely 

For you will eventually decide 

When someone’s mask will fall

But what if it is overdue? 

Rather be alarmed 

Do the Maths 

And evaluate the amount of your life 

That others deserve in their life 

And I can bet 

You will start giving yourself 

An Exclusive right over your own life! 

For no one deserves your presence 

In your life, more than you!

You ask me 

How to run away 

When standing among duplicitous faces 

Let me tell you! 

You don’t run away

You rather fly 

By shackling off the chains

Tied to them 

As that is the only place 

From where wing grows!
