The Captured Sun .. The Mystery ruins ..

The broken down walls ..
The moss laden bricks ..
What, you ask did I hope to find there ??
Come walk the way with me again ..
Not a word will I utter .. not a thought will you think ..
Yet, once there u will know .. you will simply know !!

Waiting for the mist to clear (in my head)
And the waves to roll back (with the words that I wrongly said)


A new path to form
Those forgotten footsteps yet to fade


The bud into a rose to bloom
Your smile till the eyes to spread


Oh yeah I wait


For the seasons to change
Luck from yellow to green to red


The whistle to blow
The hour to strike


Clouds to meet, the rain to shower
The work to finish, the gloom to move over


Don't we all wait ?


The first cry, the last minute miracle
For soul mates to meet, trophies and medals to achieve


The sunshine once again, after the long dreary days
Presents to open, the skies to tame


The wonder to begin, the disbelief to disappear
History to rewrite and life to create


Know thyself, live it till the very end
For even the dragonfly will stop fluttering its wings
