What's New?
The celebrations will die away,
The high will eventually die down.
Laughs,
Cheers, and resolutions
Will run out.
Then the realisation comes in,
It's the same as always.
You're not different
People,
Things, and your surroundings,
Are all the same,
For good or for worse.

Constant
Happiness and sadness are variables
You, however, are constant.
The variables shouldn't be able to change the constant. It should be the other way around.

Why?
Why must i belittle myself in front of you
Why must strive for your approval
Why must i close my one eye
And look through just the other one.
Why is it a sin?
To consider me my master.
You're powerful and i must be subdued.
But I'd rather be your equal,
For i am powerful too.

The purity of an emotion keeps diminishing with every blow it takes.
Its instinct of self preservation becomes the very reason of its annihilation

Eleventh Question
You can cry when you're extremely happy but you'd be called crazy if you laugh when you're depressed.
Why the disparity?

To prove nonexistence of some entity, you constantly need to prove its absence but for its existence, you need to prove its presence just one time.

Things
I admire normal things
Wake up at one's own time
Make an omelette to my liking
Have the breakfast with utter silence
I admire little things
Read a page or two of that book on the shelf
The one that you've been putting off.
Sit on the porch and let the sun warm your back
While you wait for the lunch
I don't mind writing sometimes
About normal and small things,
That we see but choose to ignore sometimes.
About feelings,
Feelings that everyone have at some point
Some that leave a memory,
And some that leave a scar.

A lie was spoken
It gave comfort. It gave relief. It gave bliss.
Seeing this, the truth dared not come out.

A Bug's life
You don't reflect the light
It gets past you, through you.
That light looks for something,
That isn't you.
You're merely in its path,
An annoyance, an irritation to get rid of.
You feel the light,
You think it radiates you.
It does, but inadvertently

Destiny called despair
You guide your delusion through the narrow paths of hope and trust, and expect to find yourself anywhere but at the wreckage of a destiny called despair.
You are mistaken.
