"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." - Mahatma Gandhi


Life goes on
But never stops,
Not letting you catch a breath.
It numbs your senses and your nature,
Not allowing you to be what you desire.

Love and friendship succumb to hate and rage,
Increasing your ire minute after minute,
Second after second,
A tick after a tick of the clock.

Feelings give way to passions,
Love gives way to lust
As the minutes pass, after seconds fly.
Life passes, reaching death,
Where you are pushed to your limit,
Another drop in the full cup of life,
And you're gone,
Lost in the memories of the distant past.
