The Pendulum

THE PENDULUM

Known as the arena of the blind,
confusion exploits the restless mind.
Scolding the fever of Summer heat,
nagging the Winter showery treat,
oblivious of life’s true intent
never, they are content.

In all it’s mayhem, it’s divine.
Echoes symphonize in one rhyme,
in death and birth, souls entwine
as the clock loses all trace of time

Pain revamp in lust
Pyramids arise from dust
Emotions surface in full blast

It’s the platform for eyes wide open
It’s the pendulum for all the broken
