Spaces

Colors and spaces
like fast moving river
changes rapidly. as the sun races
down the horizon, a prayer
hold on please, stop, you wish it freezes
the moment in my life I wish to hover
for a bit more, ceases



my thoughts embraces
as the sun goes down, casts forever

Time flies

Time flies, and with that whatever we call life
no lies, however hard we call that life
when we are inching closer to death
when we shall cease to thrive

Life, why?
all that I built and saved will be gone, sigh
all those close and dear, no more one day
die, why?

To death,
I ask, all those years which I lived
you will take away,
all those memories I hid
you will take away
why?

Far across the horizon
the birds flew to their homes
as if dreams washed away
all those people and all those places roams
