The sun has set,
In a few hours I will have to hit the bed,
But my thoughts continue,
Not allowing me to sleep,
I want to unwind and relax,
I read a book,
But the story excites me and I am awake again,
I listen to songs which I like,
But the energy keeps me awake all night,
I keep twisting and turning on my bed,
With my thoughts in my head,
The owl hooting,
Oh! Please go to bed,
Oh my! I can see the light,
My head hurts,
It’s morning now,
I was up all night….
“Everything was there, yet there was nothing”
“Loneliness took over and brought darkness along”
“Emotions were out of place”
“The need to be more visible grew”
“Insecurities clouded judgement”
“The ocean of thoughts, the waves that grew stronger day by day”
Creating an empty space…..
As my mind relaxes I hear a song,
I am in a phase of total solitude,
Calmness sets in rhythms unheard of,
Light waves of strings playing all through,
Tuning my mind to these vibrations,
I take in the energy the sounds bring to me….
The very first step to every relationship,
Once broken cannot be mended,
Built over time,
Earned not given,
“Trust” a deep word with a deep meaning,
So important to feel it within,
The connect and the bond becomes strong,
In difficult times it is the trust that says hold on,
That someone who comes to your rescue when in need,
Trust is all that you need…
Was walking on a straight road,
Met a stranger a very fun fellow,
We spoke for hours and then went our way,
Was walking on a straight road,
A flock of sheep came my way,
A shepherd who had many stories to tell,
We spent a long time sharing stories and became friends,
Was walking on a straight road when a group of horses came running my way,
I jumped off the road to make way,
The hoof taps became closer and the sound became louder,
After a while they crossed the path and made their way across the grass,
Was walking on a straight road,
A farmer in a cart came my way,
On the way to the market to sell the goods,
We drank water under a tree and ate some bread,
Then he went on his way and I went on mine,
The path came to an end, the end of the straight road,
But it was a good journey,
Where strangers became friends…..
Remember those memories we created,
Those laughs and smiles we shared,
The long journeys we took together,
Holding hands on a beach and the water coming by and touching our feet,
That piece of cake we shared,
The celebrations with our families,
Remember when I am gone,
We have faced so much together,
We were pillars of strength to each other,
Through those sorrows and the up and down’s.
As we grow old together,
Leading a simple life,
Till the end forever,
Remember when I am gone…
Sometimes I am in loss of words to write,
My imagination takes me away far,
I bring myself back to the present,
Other times it goes blank and there is nothing to be written,
Expression of thoughts is not easy,
Drawing that mental picture,
Watching that beautifully turn into words,
Then comes the excitement when words just flow,
Writing is like when you paint,
You start with a line,
But at the end the entire picture is unveiled….
She went for a long walk,
No destination just across,
Just kept going and going,
Her feet wouldn’t stop,
She went for a long walk,
Her mind full of thoughts,
Worries for what was to come,
Her tomorrow seemed so lost,
There was a sense of fear of the future,
She took a pause from her walk,
Sat on a bench around the corner and gave it a thought
Her mind was not calm she couldn’t think right
A decision could not be taken today,
So she continued her walk in a hope to find a way…
I love the way the ink feels on me,
The different colors which beautify me,
I reside in a book,
I am always aware of your thoughts,
You are always beside me,
I help you with all your plans,
Bringing it to perfection,
You discard me a number of times,
I am angry with you for doing so,
But you are the only reason I survive,
After all I am just a Piece of Paper….
