A working man's thoughts

The man returned from work and fell fast asleep,
He dreamt of a beautiful childhood day.
The sun was bright and the cool breeze brisk.
The onset of spring was evident.
He dreamt of meeting his childhood friends. They had planned to go cycling together into the woods.
Life was a lot simpler then. No fear of losing the daily battles, no worries about what the future holds.
In his dream he met God. Unable to hold himself together, he asks, "God, how do I go back to those good old days?."
"Son", smiled God, "..use the gift of 'Dream' .  "
Suddenly, a repetitive sound disturbed his sleep.
He checked his watch.
It's 6 a.m. Time to get ready for work.

She told me to go to sleep

She loved her, and so did he. It had been a while since they talked, They see each other; his throat aches, he doesn’t say a word, But how could he,    the things he was going through! ‘He doesn't care.’, she thinks. He was a person whom she couldn’t be happy with. Maybe she was right. She tells him to go to sleep. Suddenly, he felt like a person with a rope around his neck, just on the brink of suffocation. He tries staying strong, he tries not giving in ‘He doesn't care.’, she thinks. He was a person whom she couldn’t be happy with. Maybe she was right. She tells him to go to sleep. The suffocation wasn’t new, but the distance was, Piercing through him, weakening him,  every moment. He just wants to rest, but insomnia creeps in. ‘He doesn't care.’, she thinks. He was a person whom she couldn’t be happy with. Maybe she was right. She tells him to go to sleep.

To Marianne

Dear Marianne, Sometimes, when the path ahead                     seems unclear, And the terrain all around                     feels not so dear; Stop, take a deep breath,                     and a moment to realize; "It could have been worse."                     says the old and the wise. For, this too shall pass,                     and pass it will Open wide your arms, breathe in,                     & walk up to the window sill; Look at the stream below                     flowing relentlessly night and day; Reminding that things must move on,                     li...

Do Let me know..

When you're sad at heart, And want to share; When you're closed inside An opening is all you care, When the mood is hefty, And would need a lighten; When the times are tough And situations need a brighten, When you feel lonely, And some company won't bother; When life is constrained And would love to talk rather, Remember me O lady, Me is up you know; Whenever ye want to see me ...Do let me know.
