Speak Yourself #18 : Night and Day

Out of inverted pockets
alongside the glitter, she fell
Into the pool of swirling memories
a strange mix of twinkling stars
and lost seeds, like her
forgotten.. no.. no more!

After sensing
the whispering woods
the winged birds
the night breeze
the nostalgic light
she remembers..
she remembers
the flight and the fall!

Finally awakening
still in dark, though
nor inside a rabbit hole
nor enclosed within a maze wall
but beside a familiar silhouette
underneath a darkest, deepest, starry
open sky, awakened
to millions upon millions of
twinkling suns, there
but far.. very far..

As the silhouette continues
to gaze in the distance
she wonders
how far would they go this time!

Concluding thoughts:
The art of living is such a glossy idea but inherently it's all about trail and error, failing and trying again, exploring and challenging oneself to go the distance!
