The endless road

Flying

lying and searching high and low
peeking and looking for an open window...

a lovely girl finally found the last one
the most recent over a hundred and one...

on the paper plane she curiously read
a poignant note that despairingly said:

"this is my last one...", the impatient boy said;
"i gave up my love...", so sweet but sad, indeed!

I swam in the sea of hopes
Drowning me with anticipation
I touched the stars
But I got burnt
In my heart
Causing a forever scar

I will remember the lesson well
Never to believe in lullabies
For twinkle twinkle little stars
I am still wondering what you are
Sparkling diamonds in the sky
Acute emptiness in my psyche

I inhaled the vacuum of life
Suffocating me with ecstasy
I touched the meteor of emotions
And got my mind frozen
Forever unwilling to stabilise

I arrested a melting point
But only to melt my hopes
I bailed the melting point
But only to freeze my emotions
To a point
It just breaks
Leaving me
Yearning for more
Longing for thaw

I internalized the reality of unrealitivity
Hopefully unbelieving hopes
Yet I got superstitious
And started
Worshipping lies

Contemplating

Someone once said "too much ambition makes a frustrated man", but I think he also forgot to say "too much expection breeds depression"
