Why...



I wonder why,

The grass smells so good after the garden is mowed?
Is it the joy of the garden or the grass weeping it's endure.

There is a clam before any storm?
Is the shore mocking the waves or the waves smiling at the irony.

There is lightning before rain?
Is it the wrath of the sky or the earth welcoming the shower.

The heart aches when the soul cries?
Is it the wait for a new dawn or the undying odyssey of silence.

The whisper of dead air....


 
Staring at the dark night sky,
do you ever wonder,
how life would have been,
if you didn't have your dreams chasing you!!!

The dreams bestowed upon us,
by generations long gone,
twisting and shaping a tomorrow unknown,
clouding our own wishes and desires.

The dreams were born with you,
as you wanted to take your first breath,
rested next to you in your cradle,
waiting for you to light the world with your footsteps.

When you took your first step,
you were asked to dream about running,
and the world was eager to listen to you singing,
before you could utter your first word.

The never ending chase of dreams continued,
as the sands of times slipped through,
leaving us longing for moments to cherish,
moments we could say was our own.

The ghosts of our dreams haunts us,
through the draggy days and sleepless nights,
reminding us to build a future yet to come,
wrapped in our sweat, blood and tears.

I will rather have the ghosts haunting me,
 than chase the illusions created by this world,
so when I get to the autumn of my life,
hope I would have lost less and gained more....
