Thoughts

Among the smiles and laughter
Stories and incidents echo
Ice drinks as icebreakers
Singing songs in falsetto

Found the noise unreasonably calm
Inside wars took a sudden halt
Shedding away pieces of joy
Numb mind pondering who's at fault

Insecurities floating on top
The crowd became an excuse to stop
Music to ears felt indifferent
Life's elements lost its coherence

Stress and anxiety surrounds by
Fast moving lifestyle with hue and cry
Seeking When all this will pause
When heart takes the charge and mind withdraws

Thoughts are contained for a second
Inner peace is felt  and reckoned
Manifest self love and shed the strain
It is not worth to let urself go in vain
