When the whole world is in haste
And all the faces become blurry
At breakneck speed, commuting
To destinations of one’s choice
There is an urgency to catch up
Everyone going through an evaluation
The amount of happiness and agony
Not equally distributed in one’s kitty
Ostentatious lifestyles numbered few
Dazzling prosperity and earnestness
A world outside the ordinary
Everyone has an anecdote to narrate
Deep within, the urgency to live up
And meet the expectations of others
Forgetting to get a grip on our life
Why live someone else’s viewpoint
In a haste to keep the façade
Life has its pace and we outdo it
Being careless to not heed its calling
Life had other designs
Aligned with pace of nature
In our expediency, neither Nature nor Life
Are in sync anymore
When the whole world is in haste
Life is lived not the way it was intended
