RAWMAZING

Standing on the empty road I saw a light full of shadows. Just like life is a sparkling light-filled with sorrows. Just like emotions are the most misunderstood term as it's used to beg, steal, and borrow. Just like people carrying a contemptuous sack that is why humility lacks. Standing on the empty road I saw a light full of shadows. Just like faces grinning around but actually filled with a frown. Just like a bucket full of holes unable to fetch even a quarter from the well full of water. Merchants are cheaters, that's the biggest downfall in the streets full of stalls. Standing on the empty road I saw a light full of shadows. Just like buyers standing in every lane filled with confusion about what they wanna attain.  Just like happy banners waving in the air but filled with antonyms written there. This is what the irony of fate, what you see is the opposite of its present state.   

Sometimes I used to think, why nights are so deep?! Growing up made me realize that nights are so important to keep. Far from the loud world in the silent night, numerous emotions get a chance to peep. It's the best disguise to pour your wail and let it burn that unbearable heap. The traumatic head gets a pillow to weep. Unsaid words get the opportunity to speak. Zillions of sorrow get a release, after a day-long leap. After all these activities the mind finally gets a sound sleep.

Thousands of people everywhere. When it comes to lean on there is nowhere. Popping questions with already decided judgments are always there. Playing with emotions and pretending to be loyal is the facade they wear. Extending their hand to give shade but actually what they want is some gossip to share. Socializing is a myth, actually it’s a trend to broadcast others' sufferings and fears. They wanna protect you is another deception which you get to hear. Everyone is busy proclaiming fallacies because their efficiency lies here. But everyone always tends to forget that being evil is not by choice, something might have happened that being maleficent was the only option left there.

Walking down the lane, I saw a market " Market of Emotions" written on the frame. Shops were more bizarre than its name. Merchants were selling numerous emotions and Ego was retaining the most fame. Love was also one of the emotions having a super sale but, cheating, and being hurt were complimentary, as the merchant claimed. Envy was tagged as “ Try Me and Surely You’ll Buy Me.” Hate was also not behind in gathering buyers in the lane. Happiness was waving from the corner but people were busy buying disdain. Apathy was also doing well in that market full of insane.  After looking for a while a dilapidated hoarding grabbed my attention because Empathy it mentioned. Reaching there I inquired about empathy and where is the peace, I questioned.  To which the merchant responded, empathy is out of stock and peace never got the chance to stand next to these stalls.  

We were given Liberty to cherish but we are slaves by choice. We got freedom from dictatorship but it seems we were happy rowing that ship. We got independence but dependence seems our only choice. We stand by democracy but our chord is still tied with tyranny. We are united in slogans and scattered in reality. We have books to read but sadly no book can open an illiterate blind mind.
