I Abstain, Refrain, Restrain !

The grape vine talks, 

I never believed them.

You say, I hear, I trust.

But, a fearful change had to come.

Off late, it's different.

You talk, I learn more than you speak.

Ah! you don't know.

You don't know the way you thought you knew.

It's the demand of the months gone by - the space.

It's this space; day in and day out; 

It exists.

The words, they travel empty miles to reach.

They arrive.

I'm broken.

My patience, you test; I abstain.

My temper, you examine; I refrain.

My silence, you question; I restrain.

Do not wonder, "How?'

It's simple.

Wear a smile; convincing enough.

Design a world; familiar enough.

Walk on. Isn't it simple? 

I wish !
