Anujeet Iqbal

The Passage of Time 

(Musings of a woman)

In the passage of time, shadows fade

Addictions wane and their hold betrayed

As whispers lost in the wind’s embrace

Desires relinquished but without a trace

You’ll part from souls once intertwined

Leaving the echoes of lost love behind

In the tapestry of your memory’s weave

A chapter closed, yet hearts still grieve

Reality’s gospel extremely stark and clear

Unveiled before you, in the absence fear

In that actual surrender to what must be

A newfound potent strength sets soul free

So let days pass, don’t change the flow

Embrace the your life journey, let it grow

For in the ebb and flow of life’s decree

Lies the real beauty of embracing reality
