By Tabassum Tahmina Shagufta Hussein
Things fall apart When you don't know the people Once you used to know. Things fall apart When you don't know the people Stabbing you behind your back Things fall apart When you don't know What's happening behind the scenes Against you Things fall apart When you can clearly notice vengeance In the guise of smile Things fall apart when people treat you well for their own scheme Things fall apart when people Put on shows of happiness When their ultimate wish is to destroy you. Things fall apart when you are capable of noticing their each pretense. Things fall apart when you are completely unaware of the people 's plotting Things fall apart when you see the grudge in their eyes. Things fall apart and perish And there is nothing to fall apart anymore.
