The era began then,
Momentary blips; questions over who would initiate.
Seeking solitude, yet fearful,
I gazed at them; hopefully.
Hope; for I wished to understand them whole;
With just a glance invested.
But what if its not to be?
Is my prior bias, enough of an evidence to withdraw?
Will I finally be understood?
What is it that they infer?
As I embraced the process, with mindful chaos;
Cloudy eyes, that gazed past empty faces.
Or were they a reflection?
A mist my mind had pulled off,
As I looked on; reality unfolded.
A wry smile, I muster, hoping not to be read.
A phase is reached, one I defy,
As the moment soaks in, chaos made a mark.
A mark? One that moulds me without consent;
Double- minded, I walk away, rewinding time.
But what if it is to be?
Well; time resonated.
A satisfied reality? A sight to behold,
For I reciprocated.
For I had support to fall on,
Support to rise with.
An equilibrium; where we accept what we are.
Incomprehensible is this discussion,
For have thou pondered on black holes and then strike trivial gossip?
A realm, where innumerous traits interacts, much like the black hole,
For what was to be a collective mindset.
Significance? A mere thesis,
For thee brings life amidst existential crisis.
What off obligations?
Alas! Each understood the other, just how much they knew thee Self.
What's that thou feels?
How I wish I had words to say,
For time spent amidst; spoken, unspoken nuances yield a collective memory.
Had I known, they would master their roles,
I would have bettered mine.
The sun would'nt set on such a time,
For they had unknowingly become a part of me.
Such Ease did I expect?
Yet unlike a fabled script,
Stern whirlwinds of catalysts stand,
Seeking a spark to initiate,
What would drive a wedge.
Thee most glorious of them,
A possessive substance; corrodes the surface with prejudice.
Alas! There's nothing I can do,
But watch as it unfolds;
For thou knows what's at stake.
A choice of thought is all that remains,
And yet destiny lies unfathomed.
