It is a long time ago now
that there was nothing before.
Nothing to remember, recall
Nothing to expect, win or lose.

Every now and then
Can we not start afresh
Tabula rasa!
Learn, unlearn, learn.

Why must time be so long
yet memory of it so short
future be so inaccessible
and past thus unchangeable?

How come the world is so full
of people, things, opinions and ideas
yet everyone seems empty
the hollowness echoes loud.

Whats with this paradox
yin yang, duality in everything
how is unison to be achieved
or something else to stop this futility?

I can't stop wondering ..

at the spectacle that life (and death) has become or maybe always was (I am sure you know what I am refering to!)

at the lack of feeling in some and of excess in others...

at the forever reality vs idealism (whatever each maybe) debate

at how overrated 'being in lurve..' is

at how underrated 'individuality' is

at how insecure we all are despite doing everything to secure our security

at how many things there are to wonder about!

I just can't stop wondering

when I am happy with life it somehow seems its not my life

when I am excited about something it somehow seems its not for me

when I am committed to something it somehow seems its not me

when I am at peace I am more anxious!!!

wake up, let the dreams break
wake up, smell the flowers
wake up, give life a chance
wake up for a while atleast.

wake up so you see the alternate
wake up till you miss the sleep
wake up to do something different
wake up for a while atleast.
