The dawn of a timeline...

Gleaming fireworks brighten the sky
marking another year that just passed by.
How much the times have changed
from crimson red to deep blue.
People come and people walk by
some stay for a reason, season
and yet some, promise a life time.
Truth crushed under prejudices
and naive fairy tales savaged.
Lives lived behind masks
yet dreamers like me still dreamt.
An era of a paradoxical life, people and soul...
Another year of helpless tantrums
Another year pain
Some felt, some lost and some gained.
Of smiles passed from face to face.
Of lessons needed to be learnt
and yet some in vain.
Of empty books
and unwritten stories
Of triumphant battles without armours...
And here I stand at the dawn of another timeline
bruised, but still through.
I've seen the colours of my sky changing
from crimson red to deep blue.
