Illusion
From the womb of a craving mind
Feb by Hope, nurtured by Fear
Is born the enigma of Illusion
With time and Times, and the World around
You realize, the Illusion isn't just one
They grow with You, They grow on You
Four colored walls and a glass ceiling
And a mirage for a floor to plod on
Control, Success, Love, Fame
Mine, Yours and the Forever delusion
Holding on with Fear, to a World outside
The emptiness we eventually leave behind
Destiny, Plans, Luck, Meant-to-be
Attempts at belief, while there is none
Holding on to Hope, the convenience of letting go
The Life that is.....and the one that goes by
The content of Acceptance, devoured by the hunger of Aspiration
Past and Future, Dictators in a commanding Collusion
The Present wanders alone, in search of Redemption,
The guiding Light of Truth, that lurks in the shadow of Illusion

Bringing up 75 posts in this blog with this one. The last 25 posts have taken roughly four and a half years. But then, a lot of them have also received heart-warming responses from you. It feels great when you reach out saying you connected with the post. The post has then fulfilled its purpose! Writing is a life long project. I only hope I'm able to write more, write better and write to connect with you!
