Whispers Among Us

Hoping to delay every exchange
Altering state or staying the same
Transform and reshape, in the midst of all this
Not yet finished, so much will to fight it

A misprediction, these differences don’t sit well
Somewhere between what is next and what has been

Ease of recollecting
Never to project it
Harboured and held to
We stretch to fit
Are taught to drift
The succession of the inevitable
When it tears, when it ruptures, prepare

It’s fleeting and transient and all that is definite
It becomes clear to us only in retrospect

Idly engage, in rooms left to wait
Lapses forgotten, here to remain
Tempted by fate

Outshine the grey, get carried away
Aimlessly searching, forever stray
Unfolding as it should

Idly engage, in rooms left to wait
Lapses forgotten, here to remain
Tempted by fate

Outshine the grey, get carried away
Aimlessly searching, forever stray
Unfolding as it should
