Random Ramblings

Once again I wonder, Who am I ? Someone, somewhere, Just another guy? A dreamy explorer, or An exploring dreamer; Or sitting motionless like A disinterested viewer? Like a flowing river, Charting its own course, Or a stagnating pond, Choking at its source? Like those high mountains, Kissing the infinite sky, Or those large stretches of land, Endless and dry? Or a resident of two worlds - Each with its own ordeal One world uninhabitable, The other one unreal?

I stare blankly at the computer screen. Somewhere deep within I feel a pinch, I hope to unlazify my grey cells But they refuse to budge an inch. Then I look within myself again And search for that source of humor, Which was there once, I believe And wonder if it was just a rumor! And to find a story somewhere, I hope In the faces of people I look around Each of them has a tale to tell. But nowhere are my instincts found. I stare deep inside within me, And all I can find there - Is a soul stuck in a time warp, And a big void everywhere.
