Escapism

By Atulyaa Vidushi

The escapism we keep in our heart to meet the needs of our mind ,

I never understood what the need is and what is it's kind ;

The love with being unbothered 

The love with not relating ,

Never criticized my existence 

That's when I knew 

Escapism made me blind .

Not from the world but from the game 

Not from the works but from the fame 

Both of them never end

And we never escape from the pain they send,

The moments we ignored , the happiness we declined

Just for the peace of escaping we never actually find .

Escaping gave me the time that was only and only mine 

But then the grief of not pleasing others for which I lately cried 

That's when I knew 

Escapism made me blind ….
