INTROSPECTING



Smitten by the mesmerizing, poised and surreal sight,
The vast sea illuminated by dim light.

Caterwauling of people disappeared, Oh my
The condescending world and our existence seemed a lie.

Gazing at the poignant combination of beauty and peace,
The inadvertent touch of water felt like fleece.

The enigmatic waves giving a cryptic message,
Overriding my heart trapped in a rib cage.

High tides bouncing in with glorifying force,
Speculating to fall into deep remorse.

Oxygenating lungs gathering energy to face,
While tranquility prevailed all over the place.

Narrowed eyes in fierce concentration as I stood,
Puzzled seeing the gusty waves subside for good.

Embracing my feet, the water seemed so calm,
Not being skeptical about any unforeseen harm.

Expanding every microsecond ,the smile on my face,
The wind whispered into my ear about gaiety and solace.

The anticipation of dangers had gone awry,
Eyes brimming over with tears went dry.

For life hides euphoria behind a facade of storms,
Nature teaching us to look beyond behavioural norms.

Surmising the unknown to be a hot potato,
Silence is not always followed by a tornado.

Overlooking the gentle ripples across the ocean,
Lost in the contemplation of every wondrous portion.

Interrupting the thoughts which gave a new insight,
The quiet wave roared with all its might.

So petrified that bottom lip quivered with panic,
Feeling one of the saviour from the Titanic

Things which go unnoticed, trivial it may seem,
In life, they hit you so hard like a jet stream.

The gleaming sun lurking behind the cloud,
Could see you holding my hand, so proud.

Walking towards a journey of finding happiness,
Reminiscing the old times, abandoning the sadness

The sublime landscape started to seem quite uncanny,
Ambivalent about being taken care like a nanny.

Slaughtering the make believe picture in my mind,
Feeling complete within myself, comfort did I find.

Experiencing a new epiphany enlightened my soul,
Trying to outwit the quicksand is forever my  goal.
