Sometimes,
I am found lost in my wild thoughts
beneath hard rocks of golden diamonds-
seated at the bottom of my being
for my inside's full of treasures,
precious gems
wrapped in poetry shapes.
Other times,
I drive down the Memory Lane
a narrow path
between express and shun.
A junction of the said and the unsaid
leading to the land-
ruled by choices made.
Most times,
under grey skies
I miss steps and stumble
falling into tunnels and dusty paths
dusty paths
a clear map-
to green pastures untapped.
Always,
once in every two hours
I visit my dreams three times,
like a mother hen-
nursing her eggs before they hatch
I climb onto the walls of my own heart
hoping for an escape in a clogging world.
I find my strength within-
just enough courage for my return,
as I go back in search of my fears
ready to fly!
