#16. Empire of dust.

I decided I'll keep them all,

I'd preserve them, so that they stay,

but my ten fingers can't shield everything,

in a spectrum, with shades of grey.

I tried my best, I gave it all,

I threw the net, for a purpose that hid,

under my heart, a fear of loneliness,

gripped me as I slipped.

In a flash of a moment, it fell apart,

you broke the bars and fled,

and left me stuck to the ground,

I felt high, instead.

And your feathers made me realize,

my feelings crawling inside a crust,

I let them go, as I buried a part of me,

in soltitude, the Empire of dust.

All our lives we meet people, some we fall in love with, and some we leave back.

But there comes a point of time when we realise our idendity in a world of belonging, and that's when we realize, that no matter how hard we try, we can't keep everything along.

learn to live, learn to let go.
