Hold on..

The swish of the wind 

bellowing in my ears

Taking me back,to

days flown by.

Memories flooding my thoughts

Alternating- happy and sad,

I held on tight

to today's dreams .

Reaching for the stars

like i always do

Little drops of doubt

lingered in my mind.

Challenges and learnings

i hope to gain

Was that all it took

to complete my life?

Aspirations, i had many

cached in the chest within my heart

knew not when i shall unleash em

Hoped i did.

"That day too shall come"

my inner voice chided

jolting me back to today

hope and dreams 

Here i come....

[55er] Dream

Driving back home, my thoughts began to wander.

"What if the guy and gal weren’t killed?"

“What if the girl’s brother had set them free?”

"What if the store guy hadn’t agreed to the sting operation?”

Would the story move so well, or would it have become boring...

Honkkkkkkkkkkk

Jeez, the signal is Green already!!

Words are all i got

Type i do
hundred a minute;
Speak i do
dime a dozen

Mind of mine
runs as fast as it can,
Brain trying hard
to catch up and stay focussed

Plenty of times
lose track of reality,
Dreams and castles
i build in air and around me.

Crash boom bang
jolted back to reality
"Ah, found you finally"
they exclaim!

did i want to be found??
loving it, running amidst my fantasies
safe and protected
knowing there is no pain or hurt

"Life", i know, is built on hopes
and wishes
do they come alive?
or are they just lost?
as lost as me?
