Time goes in a somersault, reminiscing youthful days.
A strong mind in a sound body
Passions and ambitions 
Floated on wings,
Fancy-free days and dancing dreams,
Life was music with beautiful sunsets and warm moonbeams.


Now, nights get flooded and simmer in the eyes,
Mirroring the solitude in the waning lights.
Time moves on hinges in a temple of ruins,
Leaving no room to weave charming words. 
Seasonal whispers started echoing in the evening chant,
Broken wings don't make a good flight.
