Oh! why I’m here
This world built on illusions
World based on realities
World based on hope, anger, dreams
I know your intentions are clear
I know your dreams, your plans
I know how it works
I know how it ends
It’s just I’m stuck in middle which has no beginning no end
Running out of gas in a place which does not exist
Stranded in the middle of nowhere
Lost on the verge of earth
Living a dream based on illusions
People wake up
And smell the earth after the rain
Dance in the light
Smell the roses
Kiss the child
Let yourself be loved
Feel your ecstasy
Quench your thirst
Paint your own rainbows
Don’t wait for the weather to change
Feel the butterfly on the tip
Smile for no reason
Be indifferent to sorrows
Feel the tears
Hold the palm and feel the warmth
Be the company
Till the next time you are stranded
Stranded in the middle of nowhere.

I’m a mother of a smart and energetic seven-year-old. I started expressing myself creatively since the last two years. Since then I have been continuously inspired by events in my life and around me which has helped me in penning my thoughts.
I’m an avid reader, loves to sing, an ardent lover of poetry and sometimes can scribble few lines too. Loves to dance in the rain, have an undying love for nature, can watch the beautiful sunset for hours. Love to kiss and hug my loved ones.
I have worked in the IT field for almost a decade as a manager, worked crazy hours and traveled around the world. In that busy schedule, I never got the time to creatively express my thoughts. Now every time I finish a poem, free verse anything it fills me with so much happiness and excitement and a feeling to have created something of my own. I’m planning to post at least one creation of mine weekly.
Lastly, a million thanks to all who visit, like or follow my tiny bits of creation.
Every time you do that, I get to know one more beautiful person in my life and get the chance to see their creation too.

A beautiful poem. Stranded is such a mind affair and mind when a slave of heart, pulls you to dark zones where everything though beautiful may see things in poignance, for no one knows what it yearns for.
