AWAKENING

Awakening

The lush greenery around
the friendly faces
that i saw
slowly bewitched me
and lulled me to sleep.
i walked about and around
dazed by the beauty
presented to me.
some called me lazy
some carefree
i walked about relishing
and reliving all that i had missed
and thought all evils were unassociated to it.
time betrays eveyone
by its facade
it stands still, we say
while mischeviously it works
contemplating on our fall
the second you lag behind it.
I was awakened
but for the best
and lessons it taught me
that behind beauty lies the dreaded darkness
will be the last.
