Destiny

He went off wandering to some distant place,

Incapable of worrying about himself,

He was so lost in the world that he believed in,

He didn't even notice the actual world.

The actual world that was so cruel to him,

Trampled him and toppled him to eternal rest,

But he was yet to see this realm,

Yet to pull the plug on his whole belief system.

And there he lived his life in a dream,

Uncertain of what is coming his way,

But very sure that whatever he has ever thought about,

Was gonna be true... It was gonna be worth the wait.

Moonstruck

I stood there, where the cliff held still,
Where the waves kept splattering onto him,
And he just kept still,              
No matter the pain,
No matter how downhearted it was,
He just kept still.

And I stare at the cliff and ponder upon myself,
How much love would one need?
To keep rooted to the spot?
After all he has to go through?

And that’s when I realized,
How lucky he was, to live amongst that serenity,
How lucky he was to experience that splendid aurora,
To experience the ornate tenebrosity of the sky,
And to feel the kiss of the tranquil sea breeze.

I had been seeing it wrong all this time,
Maybe he never cared about the splattering so much,
Maybe he was just lost in the surreal atmosphere,
Maybe he was so in love with the vicinity,

To even care about what was going on in the world.
