Stories of our Lives

Deep   inside  the  subconscious,   exists  a
secret     place.     Mysterious    lagoon
flowing     calmly    amidst    forest.
We      visit     it    often,      when
the    mortal   world   cease to
make meaning. Etched in
there   forever,
the   stories
of   our
lives.
Two
old souls
– entangled
going to sleep,
stepping into dreams
with  a  promise  to meet,
in     a    parallel   world.    This
circle completes, when that seed comes
to    life,    bursting     forth     with    energy
sublime,   to    transcend   the    limits  of    time.

Desert – a barren land

Neeraj Khanka

As I gazed at the desolated sand dunes
looking for a reason that keeps them alive
what was once a sea – dancing to magical tunes
it is impossible to simply unlive

The memories of someone dear
still evokes the feeling to imitate those waves
why do you create the mirages so clear
reminisces of past – lifelessly raves

I asked, when the night falls in – do you also cry?
a wind passed through the sand grains – revealing a hollow sound
as if, it wanted to speak – but kept looking at the sky
in it’s own pain – it seemed so drowned

Desert – a designated barren land
rarely anyone ever feels the pain it stand.
