Musings

Moonlight bathes the road ahead
Stars shining their glory bright
Little blades of grass pave the way
As one sets the next foot in the night.

Breezy air brushes against the skin
A touch so sublime; One wonders,
This journey seems so alive
And the past just flashes by

Those days in school, kids around you,
Dreamy eyes; Slurping away the candy bars
The bell goes, it's time to trek back
Alone, as we have different paths

The birthdays and the cakes
Oft landed kisses on the cheek
The candles just keep gaining numbers
Blazing together; a whiff to bow them apart.

And one keeps walking; making friends
Whiling away time through the nights
Smoking the first drag, (remember)
Things start making sense sometimes

Here comes the graduation day
Lost in tides of orange and blue
Years of slog gets you the paper
Destined again, for a lonely stride

The rosy dew, the sweet scent
Someone's been hanging to your right
One tries hold on, but it fades away;
Grains of sand slip through the hands

And life goes on, as you walk
Right down the road, till the end
Dawn is breaking on the horizon
And the air starts moving again.

Life has meanings locked up deep
Solitude holds the key.
