Sometimes I think my mind is aging
faster than my body
those thoughts racing in my mind
like a mouse running through the trapped maze
waking me up at 3am in the morning
riddled with the mystery of life
my mind has a mind of its own
like that of a tear
on its preordained path
you can’t control those
trails though
they are born from you
these ideas ricochet
between the dream and reality
I’m that bent twisted clock
of Dali surreal dream
where time eats time
Sometimes I fear what if
the mind gets entangled in these thoughts
and the body catches up to a still mind.
What if?

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.
