LOST IN THE SPACE OF TIME

A timeless solitude is there in the heart
To sit alone in a reverie of the past
To dream the future oblivious of the present
And to be lost in the space of time

The heart tries to bring back the past
The spirit tries to bring in the future
Yet the brain tells, "It's today,
Not tomorrow or yesterday you live"

But, yesterdays give me the strength
And tomorrows, a reason
Woven by today, these make
You go on and on and on. . .

Surrounded by friends, yet alone
Here I am between the walls of today
With the body here, but the mind
Lost in that timeless spirit of life.

WALKS OF LIFE

Hush…. And hark at the wind
It’s gentle hands tries to play
The broken strings of my heart
It sings in my ears the message of hope

But when the wind passes away
The heart falls Silent, than silence
A stillness, than stillness embraces
And I feel a stranger within myself

But you are a traveller treading along
Sometimes you stumble onto strange wonderlands
But as it passes by you may forget the path
But you never forget the sights.

Don’t waste your time on jealousy. Sometimes you are far ahead. Sometimes you are far behind. The race is long. Beat yourself.
