Circus


Prelude:.You always meet people, 
observing whom you learn, things to do and, things not to do.
Not all people are bad at all times… 

but the troughs for some are really lower then some others... 
here's one of them :)

Pieces of puzzle falling in place,
My words of suspicion, now their destiny to face,
Link by link the chain is complete
Part by part the block now seems to shape.

Life seems like a big circus...
with animals and birds at bay,
With every fun u have,
With every moment u live,
They will make you pay!
The lions roaring and the tigers growling,
The monkeys scared, the elephants dressed and prepared,
A person terrified, acting as bait,
It’s all delusive, It’s all fake,
Dying like that is never his fate.
The monkeys were never scared, the elephants never played.
Sitting at a distance the audience look amazed…
Now with life I ask you to collate...

Life’s a jigsaw, every person a puzzle
Every shoulder they meet, every step they fore-take
Former not to grief, neither to embrace,
Latter not to help, neither for a friend’s sake,
It’s just a step for them to further escalate…
Their hands are full with options abate,
Swaying both sides with expressions intricate,
Every step they take is calculated and pre-made,
Their company is planned by the time, day and date,
Every fun u have,
Every moment u live,
They will make you pay!
Their periods of confiding, Their moments of confession,
Their periods of secrecy, Their times of regression,
It’s all delusive, It’s all fake,
Being loyal all the time, was never their fate,
a hint of opportunity, their heart just sways,
Sitting at a distance you (the audience) look amazed!
Now with the circus did you collate...

I am a spectator, I just spectate,
I quit my teaching, I quit my mending ways,
I share my poems, I write my essays,
They are all real, they have a role to play!
It takes a will to read this, It takes a will to face,
Its upto you to listen, its upto you to permutate!
Pieces of puzzle falling in place,
My words of suspicion, now their destiny to face,
Link by link the chain is now complete,
Part by part the block now seems to shape!
