Signs

by Shifa Manhal

When your mind starts wandering.
Your paths start deviating.
Your soul a space for the Satan's dwelling.

Lie lie lie'that's all you do.
Truth is just an illusion
It just doesn't matter any more to you

When falsehood is your cape
And procrastination is your drape
What stands is the hair on your nape.

Old conventions reinstated by new dimensions
At the expense of
Others' expectations.

When the persona has departed
The panorama shattered
And every inch of you guarded.

Your precedence is revised
Your demeanor altered
Your mischievous fiend elevated

When you start missing the one you used to be
Frustration and anger within
You start loathing the one you have become.
