safe and sound

no need for regrets
for mistakes made yesterday.
the past is gone.
no looming fate,
no uncontrollable destiny.
no hunger, no sickness, no fear.
no death.
nothing ahead.
nothing behind.
just stillness.
light. warmth.
the pain i felt,
the pain i may have caused others,
it's behind me.
no looking back.
no fear of what will come.
just the pulse of time.
invigorating. soothing.
bask in your light,
taking comfort, knowing you are there.
safe and sound

the favoured part in every play

i am a distant spectator
and you are my subject of interest
the light amidst a mise-en-scène so serene

eventually

and all the seeds that i have sowed
in all the dreams that i have worn
if one might come true eventually
i would grow old ever so gracefully
and i thought all it needs was faith
seems like everyone gets it wrong
once in a while...
