Part B: The Hibernation: Trilogy of Sweet Melancholy


When your own smile, charges an appearance fee.
You buy from the market, what comes free.
In the strive, to build your finances.
You forget life's little, nuances.
On the career path, by its curves and bends.
You get no time, for your friends.
When between airports, and hotel lobbies.
You profitably trade, your favorite hobbies.

Know it's time, to stop and take.
A deep breath, and then a status check.

When so-called friends, stand their real test.
And emerge but, acquaintances at best.
Even those few, for whom you care so very.
All you get, is their periphery.
Your belief, faith and trust turns rotten.
The moments sweet, are so easily forgotten.
When you are sure that none will miss.
When it's time for the goodbye kiss.

Know it's time for graduation.
A long-deserved hibernation.
