Analysis of Fleeting Thoughts



Plodding the route of sandy trails,
Negotiating the earth with a solitary tear of thrill,
Clutching the moments,
Stretching the time to eternity,
Keep in at heart the present thought,
Emotions stemming the branches of love and leaves of tender memories,
 You and me at the sight of day-light.
Singing the scream of nightmare.
Shaping the love of inner clay;
Knocking the daylights of a bright sparkling life.
The grudge of prediction, the unpredictability, the thought of insanity.
The flourishing moments suddenly freeze.
Oh Please, What do I do to refuse? The truth versus reality.
Ignoring the trail and trudging the path to my inner voice for peace.
Dancing a dream of dream with ease.
