Miles to go...


With the glimmer and glimpses of the past forgotten,
With the gleeful memories of the childhood fun,
With the sheen and shine of the morning sun,
I have dreams in my eyes and thoughts unsaid,
I feel a glass ceiling above my head,
but steady and calm in the storm i tread,
To face what comes lying ahead,
I heedlessly proceed unknown threads,
I walk, I run,
I cry, I am numb ,
But with destiny calling me from miles away,
I tread my path without dismay,
With grief and resentment in my veins,
I still have solace in my heart,
and miles to go now that I have start,

To hear the rhyming bells of change,
To see the blissful sun's visage,
To feel the earth wear its dancing shoes,
To touch the tranquil blue waters too,
To live a life of reverence and tribute,
Before i kiss the fear of death away,
Tell the god above,I am here to stay,
For I have a bag full of promises to keep,
and I have miles to go before i sleep....

P.S. The author's mood swings are to be kept in mind! :) and a mild vote of thanks to robert frost..couldn't have written it without the inspiration derived from him.
