Rhythm

Where's that scale
To strike that balance
Time has lost it - all in a day

Gone's the rhythm
Gone's the weight
But words now empty? They're here to stay

How is that legacy?
When times have changed
Lines etched in memories, and rhythms misplaced

So here's my apology
For changing me
I'll find that rhythm we used to be

Author's Note:

Hi everyone. I know it's been a very long time since I've updated this. I apologise and hope this piece was worth the wait.

In the mean time, do head over to TheMillennials - it's a project I've been working on in a collaborative effort with @XoxCrazyLikeThatxoX. We'll be publsihing a collection of poetry and short stories based on the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. And we really need your help to get the ball rolling so do remember to follow the official account TheMillennials for updates and more information on how you can participate as well and make a difference.

Again, thank you for all your support this past year. It has been an amazing experience to be interacting with, and getting to know you guys. Thank you. I still can't promise regular updates but I can promise you that I'm here to stay.

Until next time (hopefully not 5 months), stay safe and happy holidays.

Peace,
'A
