Repose
I lay on my back,
as the sweet scents engulfs me,
as the breeze sweeps through my hair,
the shining star, high up in the sky,
blinds my eyes..and I reached out with my hands,
and grabbed it..
and all I got was nothingness,
can you see the future?
Its unpredictable..

Life is beautiful no matter how you look at it. Much like how you wish to see your future come to be. However not all is gold and glitter and sometimes, just trying to reach that one miracle which seems so close, but in actuality it’s far away. Such is the future. You can never tell if that one thing is right in front of you, it’s just a distant dream.

Much like in reality itself, one cannot lie down and keep on hoping, dreaming to reach that glimmer of hope without any effort. One would actually need to take a stand, much like what we humans normally do. We do not dream the impossible, we create the impossible. If lying down does not permit us to reach for the starry skies then we must rise, rise higher than ever to reach the shinning glimmer above us.

Wake up and do something about it. So that one day even if we do fail to grasp that one shinning star we hope to attain, at least there are other stars within our reach. Such is reaching out towards our own future.



Solitary
A lonely soul placed to travel on this planet,
who reaches out and tries to form bonds.
Sometimes she succeeds, sometimes she fails,
yet she never gives up and tries again.
And she believes that this successes and failures,
are the very reasons why her soul
is able to slowly blossom in a beautiful burst of colour,
like a rainbow after a flood.
Where she believes that a life lived for others is a life worth living.
One who thinks that the future is not far from reach,
yet is unpredictable...

Solitude of the soul. We in general are ‘lonely’ when it comes to one’s own journey. We travel from one place to another, searching for other souls and forming friendship to dispel that loneliness which each individual experiences.

A journey through life, through tribulations and tasks, sometimes one succeeds and sometimes we don’t. However it is for this reason that we slowly begin to take shape. One day we too will become adults, just like the flowers will one day bloom and the fruits will one day ripen. The outcome of it however is determined but what is it we have undergone, just as such is the flowers and fruits around us. The outcome though it differs, it is still a beauty to behold by the end of it.

To live a life for one’s own self is a life of solitude and distant. Though true that life is up to how one would like it to be, but it is always more meaningful when things are done not only for ourselves but for others as well. A smile on another person’s lips is a feeling no one person can achieve to see, if he/she doesn’t have someone else to actually make smile with.

Through it all with time and time again, the future though reachable will always remain unpredictable. One cannot tell what is it we will face or will its outcome be that of what we predicted, even if it feels just an arms reach away from us. What ever it maybe, never give up hope and always stride against what oppresses us from reaching a brighter future, such is the will of mankind.

Flow
The smooth surface,
Almost mirror like,
Watching it unknowingly,
I entered its flow,
Unconsciously submerged by it,
Fighting to grasp the sky,
Before being pulled down again,
Following it’s flow,
Unable to turn back,
The road is set;
I shall head to sea,
Can you see the future?
It’s unpredictable

Playing with our minds, such is life. On one end it is easy to see its beauty. On another we see its trials and tribulation. From the start from which we are born into this world, so begins forth our journey. An inescapable fate awaits all and not one is spared from this tunnel of chance and destiny.

From here on it is up to us to decide, if we are to sink or swim. For to sink is to give in and enter a realm of despair, and to swim is to reach the unknown parts of this great sea known as life.

Though we can never tell in which direction we will be heading into, or what we may encounter, and to that of which what will we find at the end of it all, one thing is for certain, we will surely find something of means, if not reach a destination in which we wish to achieve.


Solitude
Its light is dimmed,
The abandoned star,
Fighting on,
To shine once more,
Reaching out to brighter lights,
To place it back on the stage once more,
To once again be the star she was,
The path is rough,
But she will make it there.
Can you see the future?
It’s unpredictable…

A distant star will always seem smaller than those closer to the eyes of those who see. A lonely star in this vast galaxy is no different from that of a lonely soul. What can this lonely soul do, so that it would once again, shine as bright as the rest?

In this vast universe, we come across tons of other stars. Some shine as bright as a morning sky while others too far to see with the naked eye. Reaching out to brighter stars, to be closer to those who shine bright, may one day allow that one lonely star to shine as bright as those around it.

Such is the journey through life. Though we are of a single soul and individual, there are those of who come with great hearts and of shining spirit. Those of which whom are willing to lend a honest hand, and to those whom are willing to make that long journey just so you smile, and just so life itself will be a better or more meaningful one.

One man or soul may seem insignificant, but with the hearts and spirits of others, even one can achieve great things. If not so, one could always still look at things in a different light, or they may be looked at, with a brighter light.
