morning bus ride,
decouple from the crowd,
collect within self,
reflect reject regret or rejoice,
no much time has left,
just to live for by to the end....

...lets rhyme
you can't whine, when I dine,
let me do my time, with my usual grind,
to my prime, don't cry,
lets not rewind, stay on the sideline,
I will be fine, to the finish line....

take it,
live it,
like it,
return it,
loan it,
sleep on it,
look at it,
close it,
open it,
occupy it,
own it,
buy it
populate it,
disseminate it,
talk about it,
listen to it,
feel it
destroy it,
stop it,
yet to in love with it....

with my eyes closed,
as I felt laying down,
my hands cold,
the body freezes,
the voices heard,
the room felt crowded,
many whispers at all corners,
as the soul removed,
the breathing stops,
as looking down,
recognizing that existence,
darker as I felt,
so quiet,
no more voices,
nailed it shut,
"I" doesn't exist...
