Sounds of the rain droplets get increasingly irritating

as it is the only sound in this echoed room

but what is this sound? on my wrist

tick tock tick tock

the seconds reads

the hours count down as time passes away

no power

no energy

just darkness and plainness

the atmosphere is tasteless

counting down to another with a book

living in the moment with the inked words

pictorial images bringing alive a perspective

that make the world feel whole again

and for the first time

I worry not about the struggles

about the boredom of the times

I am stationary but I feel the world right in my palms

there's power in words only if you can tap into its true meaning
