THE ONE THING LEFT TO SAY

I'm gonna say something cliché,

but time flies too fast.

I'm yet to write about time

Through the prism of my eyes.

Am I really getting old?

I turned 26 just recently,

a quarter plus one of a hundred

a human presumably has in their store.

It’s been eight years now

Since my home became a blurry dot,

I found home in a new place

I was so reluctant to go before.

And, honestly,

I ain't bothered by numbers,

They’re just that – numbers,

but I am concerned about time

I have left to spend to love –

even hundred lifespans aren't enough

to love the world I've created

with the help of wonders befriended.

Time walks past and never minds

even one tiny peek at the past

like I do each time I sin,

opening the door for ennui to enter,

I've heard I'm a very good host,

not bad at guesting.

I confess I sin more often

even without my spirits sinking,

because my time is a little gold fish

has this tendency

to undermine my coiling bliss,

provoking my brain to make a remake

under a “Back to the Past” name,

forgetting the present is funnier.

Who am I to question the brain?

I do, btw.

I have lots of questions

for my brain to explain,

but the main one is always the same –

what beef does my brain have with chemistry?

Chemistry was my silver subject in school.

The gold was taken by literature.

I was awestruck, now I'm stuck

with this gnawing desire to write.

Silver would've suited me better than gold.

An apple doesn't fall far from the tree,

but physics makes me disagree,

too many factors affect the trajectory

of an apple rolling away from the tree.

Too many apple species

to make such blatant assumptions

brushing away the case history.

I'm said to have stretched the distance –

an old song I've been listening to

since the reins been held by my hands.

Drawing an opaque line,

they hold a loaded gun under my pillow,

ready to shoot whoever it is,

whatever it is

crawling stealthily to shake my ground.

Time has been very nice to me,

took an eraser stealing three years

of my youth. Not that I mind that much,

an amnesia proved to be alright,

pretty helping even,

my wounds got time to crust,

I got time to press the restart button,

go on a journey and start anew.

(I keep pressing the button.)

Thank you, time.

Very considerate of you.

Honestly speaking, I cherish time.

I see time as a frenemy I look up to,

but despise as well. As time passes

I get more and more flabbergasted

by its entrapping changing stream,

or is it me who's changing?

Who’s constantly shedding skin?

One day my hair may become grey,

wrinkles adorn my skin,

I may not be an agile night owl anymore,

but a morning lark

going to bed early before midnight,

or one day I may choose my fate myself –

forever young and beautiful sounds nice.

Sorry, I stole the spotlight,

I'm too self-immersed to veer off

letting time to show off.

Time is the main character here.

It took me a week to write these lines

to try and play a serenade to time.

In the end, the one thing left to say –

Thank you, time,

for letting me stay.

Slumber party question! What's your earliest memory of encountering beauty? The first thing you can recall where you looked at something and were struck by how beautiful it was?

"To call the Pelupelu merchants insistent would be putting it lightly. T'was a fair bargain all things considered. Two onzes of yerba mate and eight of coffee beans should last us a moon or two upon our return to Old Sharlayan."
