What’s Relinquished Unheard!


Contending or condemning, always,
Never bring contentment but discord;
Reason why herein in this Modern age,
Never fought invisible enemy but crawled.

Perceive present from perspective of past,
Wrong to say never look in mirror behind;
As what’s to come or on what path you drive,
Would be reflection of, that would illumine.

Indeed, scratching wounds bequeath null,
But reflection from past would draw line;
From where one shalt commence to contest,
And in the direction on which self opined.

Time’s cyclic or linear or what goes around, reoccur,
Some wait for some to change whilst some for world;
On a path if one traverse, shalt look both sides,
Else would fall or degrade by what’s relinquished unheard.
