Just a few minutes ago
There was so much noise!
Children running,
Adults laughing,
Teenagers singing.
But none of this made any difference to me…
I sat alone…
I prefer it like that.
It gives me a chance to ponder
A chance to let loose.
My mind wanders,
It’s like a trance –
A trance of contentment.
A trance of happiness.
Though I’ve felt it many times
It feels fresh every time.
The moments are like fresh air,
New life; electric charges.
I don’t respond to people’s questions.
I answer only to my thoughts,
My imagination.
Most people don’t understand it.
To them it feels strange.
But a few do…
I understand their emotions.
We’re in a different level of existence.
You cannot learn it.
You cannot teach it.
You can only feel it-experience it-embrace it.
The time you spend with yourself,
It cannot be measured in minutes, seconds or hours.
It cannot be told in the form of poems or stories.
It cannot be expressed in words or actions.
The time spent with yourself…
Sometimes even you don’t understand it!
So, I sit alone,
To try to understand this outburst of emotion-
I am loud and silent.
Awake and asleep.
Tired and energetic…
All at the same time.
But I try most-to be at all times-
AWARE!
So, I sit alone…I think…I ponder!
