Sometimes,
meaningless things are more meaningful in life.
and some meaningful things don't hold much meaning for you.
Heartening
In its days of glory
Slowly dying an eternal end

sun rays
hitting me one
by one
with warmth
you radiate
making my skin
glisten and
my heart glow

you got me
hooked on the air
that
gently tickles my neck while
I dream
of never getting sober

I'm
dehydrated
lacking the water you pour into me
every time we
drown in each other's
navy blue oceans

I knocked on the door,
it was a silent night.
I knocked once more,
there was no one in sight.

The house was locked with the key inside.
I sulked and waited till dawn was to arrive.
Then the birds started chirping
and the hens with their sing
Woke every dozer sleeping, unknown to my sting.

But yet the door remained closed
outside which i strolled
I was sleepy, hungry
And my head spun like a web.
I cursed the person who defened the bell.

It was too late!

I couldnt wait anymore.
I held my head and walked away from the door.
As i did the milk man arrived
and the dear maiden inside
Opened the door to my heavens floor.

She was suprised!  seeing me outside

She began to question me in this mode,
"What on earth was i doing sitting on the road ?"
Now it did not matter to me,
For i was too delighted and at last at ease,
to see my way into a deep bright sleep.
