Choose To Fade Away
Choose to fade away...!
Indeed it is we who keep our worlds afloat,
in the bargain, crossing vary many a moat!
Came from nothing and will go back to it,
yet, carry impressions on every small bit!!
Keeping pride and honour, at once - in stake,
realising, but, not accepting, 'we - a mere flake'!
Competing, vying and struggling for a niche,
end-up getting trapped in perpetual a glitch!
The aura that is created around the trivialities,
endless exaggerations on their functionalities!
With limits in sight for all materialistic reach,
isn't it life away from it, that we should preach?
So much more to give and even more to take,
but, we end up chasing after all that is fake!
Can we not just hold-on, exist and just 'be',
instead of stepping on many lives with glee?
Insanity prevails continuously in a frenetic pace,
outcomes we face, all along, in this chaotic maze!
Likes and dislikes in all fields tantalise and sway,
expectations 'n' anticipations, prop-up to waylay!
If life is a process of continuous transformation,
isn't it pertinent to move without accumulation?
Not even carbon footprint when I leave my way,
given an option, would just choose to fade away!
