Life Inside a Life
And creatures will fall, they’ll moan & cry
All that moment lives in tiny another try
Perhaps it blinks when we talk with ourselves with doing nothing; look through a blur and shining fissure by standing as a sole, wonder with hope. Wish for the drop of rain that fills our shingly heart with highest level of glee or sweet disturbance or may be between that…
I was checking my blog for last one year almost and wrote nothing… watching my words are inhaling through so many eyes… as if I said words of our hearts…there was no me over here…it was us…what made me delighted is my absence did not make those words out of visitors or words of appreciation. It means we like to hope, we still want to make things better, we like to follow our dreams, we like to taste the sweetest part of life….
I was traveling for so long…with my borrowed broken camera in hand and notebook in pocket…trying to be as little I could be, in a sense of human, with pride of no man. I was searching for nothing to make me satisfied or bring me a mountain of success. I preferred to be people, walk along with the crowd, try not be choosy, not to complain, be with everyone to be with me…Life is different everywhere, that’s why all the different things bring me to the same idea.
Over the Hills & Far Away
I was on the road,
On the street of unknown villagers,
I stepped with naked feet on the mud, a sound of it…
Even I closed my eyes when wind and dust were playing,
I saw the children were singing on the lap of life,
I smelled the poor lunch of a farmer,
His eyes were smiling to his wife while he was eating,
Their love was greener than the field I ran yesterday,
I ran from the rain to save my backpack,
& I was smiling over & over again,
I grasped at the broken country road which still reaches the sky,
Far…Far away….
I saw my face on the water, it was moving
I discovered the thin line that lies between green and blue,
I heard how the night sounds, it’s not so silent
I sat on an unknown vehicle where 3 men shared 2 men’s seat
I heard its roar, the engine was visible
I noticed the strangers were laughing,
I learnt to make friends from strangers, it’s so easy
I was distorted with the beauty I can’t inhale
I cried for the tiny bird, it fell from the tree
We could not save her life
I told many jokes, they were erotic
I saw them to laugh a loud
I left myself, & became them
& they became me…
I was on the road…
It was life inside a life…
No Direction Home
The best part of living is when you are on the road…with “NO DIRECTION HOME”
It gives you the beauty of vision, smell of being lost, shadow of your life, color of your smile, sad inability of holding things, happiness of leaving behind, truth of your light and song of your innocence…
Country, People, family, Friends, lovers, ever known streets, known shopkeepers, almost same faces everyday, walking in the colorful crowd, unknown smiling faces…. is life. All these things scheduled with time which can be another name of life.
