run


Gravel of unprocessed vibes
Crackle under your shoes
Blood rushing pulsating
Through the city lights
Rhythm of steel and bones
Choose grit

Run awhile
See the planes fly a mile
Cutting through the vast expanse of blue
Leaving fleeting lines for seconds
Mesh of leaves shading over you
You got your own pace

Dripped wet concrete roads
Almost reflecting like mirror
Cushions of fallen buds
Flowing along in the pavement streams
A Himalayan air for a day
enveloping the concrete jungle

Lovin' the empty lanes
Facing the dark alleys
Spaces where GPS couldnt pin
once fields, now bustling dwellers
Layering the same spaces of
Bitter memories with better memories

Destination was more than a lemonade
Run past laughing at Sarojini slogans
Street musicians senerading with a song
By the Pinterest houses springing up
Destination wasn't imagining a lit church 24/7
its gates closed and dark

Destination is these children
Insides the gates of high rise elites
Or DIY doors of street smart slums
Whose cycles speeds across
Little feets that runs across
On the playground markings
Picking up the pace where you left off.
