The scales of justice,
Tip, and tip again.
But the scale of these events,
Might help doom humanity.
Unrest may be human,
And so is compassion.
Although the scales tip,
Eventually, there is always equilibrium.

Invisible
Slipping away,
Feeling unseen,
Can anyone see me?
Do I want them to?
– Arsh
Recovering
Left me alone,
Fending for myself,
Abandoned again.
I got back up again,
Left you behind in the dust,
Now I'm in the light.

A Question Answered
Ethereal Goddess,
Can we say that we tried?
Just this once?
Magnificent disaster,
Trying was not enough,
It never is.
– Arsh
Deception
Talking low
And talking smooth,
Effortlessly charismatic.
Yet every effort has
Gone to waste.
They lied.
– Arsh
A Silver-Tongue
Eloquently speaking,
Yet slowly sinking.
No silver-tongue can
Help me now.
Suddenly drowning,
Yet, irreversibly hoping.
No hero can
Save me now.

Humanity
What gives an entity humanity?
It cannot be love,
For some humans don't feel it,
Though they are as human as everyone else.
What gives someone humanity?
It cannot be empathy,
For some people don't feel it,
Though they are as human as everyone else.
What gives someone
The right to decide another's humanity?
For humanity is an oft debated subject,
That no one knows the answer to.
Our humanity doesn't define us,
As we can't define our humanity.
So what makes us any different
From non-human entities?

Strange Courtesies
Stranger to what I've always known,
These common courtesies feel alien.
Acting normally to what is demanded,
And that is how we have existed.
– Arsh
Drifted Apart
I still don't know
How many of your things
Are mine,
And how many of my things
Are yours.
I guess we'll have to
Contend with the fact that,
I knew you for a while.
And for a while
Is better than
Never at all.
– Arsh
Farewell
Stalling this departure,
Cause I know that
This is the last farewell
Between us.
Goodbye my friend.
