Life Poems

To be continued

To be continued
it's been a quiet night so far uneventful, plenty of silence broken only by the occasional sounds of the cricket chirping;
a long time indeed since i stayed awake till the early morning, 4am to be precise, sleep is the last thing that is on my mind try as much as possible, my eyes refused to close;
my mind, like a clock, keeps thinking a lot of things from the silliest to the bizarre, from the good moments to the bad moments and even scripting "what if" and "if only" scenarios  in my life;
as the cold morning breeze played havoc with my senses, gently trying to disrupt my thought process and put my mind to rest, i tried to stay alive and keep it going;
with the dawn slowly approaching and my destination still a long distance away, i needed to keep my senses sharp and not overwhelm it with the "to be forgotten past", as the future is still waiting to be born, the protest of the mind is quelled down, only to be continued later...

Thank you 🙂
when you travel through the countryside, there wont be any other noise apart from the vehicle and the cricket chirp 🙂
