I forgot how it was like.

Posted on July 12, 2020July 11, 2024 by chefswifediary

182 days has passed.

I forgot how it was like.

Waking up in a concrete world,

when peeping on neighbour was just a window away.

I forgot how it was like.

Living on a land that was expensively scarce,

when walking shoulder to shoulder was inevitable.

I forgot how it was like.

Walking alongside digital-addict pedestrians,

whom eyes glued on mobile phones, walking dead.

I forgot how it was like.

Living in an awe-inspiring skyline city,

where materialism mattered.

I forgot how it was like.

Rule and order supersede emotion.

where people were just generally whiny.

I forgot how it was like.

Waking up in the morning,

when positive greeting was what I missed most.

I forgot how it was like.

For these memories were gradually fading,

that a new life has just begun.
