Modern Lexicology



Let’s talk about loyalty,

Everyone’s favourite word nowadays.

What does this word loyalty mean,

When the connotation is completely changed

From being loyal to someone and shifted

To keep someone until their actions are in harmony

With your thoughts, actions and your perception of reality.

Your devotion has limits and if they slightly push back,

Even just a tiny step away then you are hurt, betrayed.

Where is the loyalty from your end?

Let’s talk about audacity,

Everyone’s favourtie expression!

When you try to take some time for yourself

And they feel so offended that you took some time off of them.

The entitlement of your time they have,

And claim you owe them every second – from the moment your eyes are open

Till the very second you press your tired onto the soft pillow.

The nerves you have to pull back for a bit

To keep yourself sane and complete,

Your time for yourself and no one else.

The audacity to stay away for your recharge,

The courage to fight again back.

But this is how the world operates today,

You are constantly in debt to all the Time consumers,

Energy vampires with appearance so innocent and pure.

They expect you to gift them with everything you have

Until they find a stronger kick somewhere else.

And once they find your replacement,

They withhold the precious title – the Ultimate Cure of their Imperfection!
