Then And Now

Previously I used to love spacious home;
Now I prefer small spaces,
Small corners, small cubicles,
Small circles of friends,
Small plates of meals, and less often.
Previously I used to cling to whatever I possessed;
Now I want to loosen the grip
And let things go!
Things once most desired no more attract me now.
Yet, voluntary dispossession is a big exercise not easy to do!
Competitions neither inspire me now, nor attract;
Engaging in arguments seems futile.
Life is shrinking and the shadow lengthening,
It's time to let things go as they would.
A peaceful end is what I want, like everybody else.
