at the stroke of midnight
the light filters in
still asleep
stepping on one, two many things
stumbling and cursing
i make my way out
i try to make my way
on the road to somewhere
listening to the radio
with little clouds tagging along the path
rain like daggers coming down on me
All my world in one grain of sand
And I’ve blown it
probing in the dark
yet right infront of me all the time
all this time i couldnt see
i was in a deep slumber
trying to live in heaven
while my feet was stuck in hell
like a disease spreading through the blood
i let u take over my life
awakened at the last minute
with the light finally filtering in
i have grown weary of this lie
that you called "our life"
i woken now to find my life
blown into pieces
comforting myself
i make my way out
on the road to somewhere
with none to call my own
head held up, looking straight ahead
i walk into the horizon
to rest my soul for the night
a brand new day awaits
a brand new journey beckons
sunrise brings new hope
sunrise brings me back my life

reflection of sorts….something that has been nagging me for a long time and its out now

stuck inside inside this shell
i long to break out
away from all this mundane life
i wish to break free of this boring routine
materialistic ambitions galore
swimming against a tide (that we call life)
fast at times
slow at another
stuck once in a while
i lay buried under a sea of desires
meaningless most of the time
necessity once in a while
clueless for the rest
i wait
like a shadow in the night
like a fly around a light
like a rebel wanting to break free
i wait
i am tired
trying to make sense of this humdrum existence
life is now a high speed car race
drive fast to stay with the pack
drive slow and be left behind
its all happening too fast
living in a circus
walking a tightrope everyday
smiling to one and all
juggling everything that is thrown
another day, another act
another mindless journey
putting on a brave face
wearing a new make-up each time
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for?
Outside the day has dawned
But inside in the dark
i want to break free…
