The Best things in life are unseen, that is why we close our eyes to kiss, cry, and dream.

A crystal ball
Can tell you all.
But your future,
You will always hold.


The hour glass,
Runs out of sand.
But if you live your life,
The need will be not to,
Flip it over
Again.


The candle holds
Circular flickers around
A energized dream.
But that doesn’t mean,
There is no glint
In the rest of the foreseen.


Everything looks invariable.
You pass by all the wonderments,
Of the detectable.
But just step back.
And think that,
There’s an atypical
Situation.
To make the moment
Remarkable.

Living life is important. Without loving it, it is waste of the years.
