Firefly

Tripods lie wide open and empty page awaits There is no electricity, yet those bulbs glow inside invisible gates. The sky is cloudy without any birds' cry Yet I see nothing, but a blinking firefly. The sun has set after the moon has lit up At the corner lie silently speaking coffee cups. Smiles will be empty without shining eyes And I do nothing, but wait for fireflies. Nights are dark and darker are the days Google notifies how terrible will be the haze. Glasses are clean and cleaning further will pop a 'why' And I dream of nothing, but a beautiful firefly. Stood on the platform but the train hasn't arrived The equation is there but it needs to be derived. Life spirals hard into infinite twinkling sky  Yet I am amazed by nothing, but a point-like firefly. Mirror reflects, but the reflection is not mine Whatever happens, some people always reply, 'I am fine'. Brazen like Mars but humans never give up to try Yet they hope of nothing, but a tiny little firefly.   ...
