That Friday Night...

And it's one of those days again….
l'm lost again…..
My heart feels heavy and mind blank….
I find traces of regret as I fluttered through the pages of life...

Where am l ...?

Why am I here ...?


It's an unknown-familiar place…!
As I walk the paths, I see pictures of memories nimbling (hastily moving) in front of my eyes.
I feel sorry for the way I treated my old self. I feel sorry for all those wrong decisions...
The sun has set, the dusk is fading, it's getting darker here.

It's like a forest of tall trees with deep roots, digging into the past.
It's getting more darker here, I hear the wolves cry from a distant hill. The sky is getting cloudier. It feels creepy, l am choking, I need
to breathe…

Yes Breathe…

But Help..!!

The roots....

The roots are strangling my throat, tangling my hands, as I try to push them away.
I want to breathe!
Help!


And I woke up..!
Screaming…
Sweating…
Heartbeat Racing...


It's dawn now, the reddish hue of the sky, soothes my mind. The birds are chirping from a distance. The air is fresh, the aura of lily planted in my balcony, dances in the air...

It's a new day, a day full of hope...
It's the present, I survived the nightmare of the past, once again…!


And it's one of those days when I feel lost, lost in the beauty of life and love…..


#live... #love... #prosper...
