The silent observer

He always had an optimistic feeling for being reticent, for not letting his perceptions sprout and become vulnerable to the contrite reaction of the ambulatory beings around him. The fright of self expression tried its best to intimidate him to the core of being introvert and to diminish the crests of his self respect. When the world saw him as a numb sufferer of verbosity and dogmatic acclaims of those who move on the escalators in a muddy street, he kept on observing everything with the eyes of an eagle and sagacity of a hermit. They did not notice the stretches of mirth on his phlegmatic countenance, the signs of satisfaction within his soul.

He was born with them , he grew for them to adopt him, he tried to make them realize what his worth was, but they were all deaf. As they grew and spread their limbs, he noticed the differences they had, they had different colours, different languages , different sizes and everyone of them unsatisfied of what he had. He could sense the beginning of devastment, he could see the nebulous picture of what was lying ahead.

And his fear was for a reason, they made kingdoms and destroyed homes. The appettite to grow which could never be satiated, made them snatch others’ breads .
They learned to live and became mighty, they had power , they had wealth but… they did not stop

The multiplication of needs led to the growth of cancer of disharmony . He was in peril, he was helpless. They started with skirmishes and reached to Wars. They were hungry of their’ owns’ blood. he saw all tht , glittering swords, pool of corpses, innocent orphans and white widows and waited for the restivity…. after the chaos , he again arose, he again prevailed there with soon to be attacked by the group of the leaders who had a vow to slaughter him whenever he tries to make an identity.
From clash of sword to depinning of bombs, from spears to nuclears… they always put a step forward to destroy him , ironically searching for him only.
He is here and he will always be here but does not know how to make them understand what his name means, what does “PEACE” mean.
