Awakening

I closed my eyes, opened a dream
Took a peek into my past
A canvas with no memories or souvenirs
I realise, my time, trickled away...

I closed my dream,opened my eyes,
Time still trickled, but,

I am awake and alive !

  1. Beautiful piece, Mal! I really enjoyed it. Only one tiny criticism, though. A number of your words after commas don't have a space. Easy enough to fix though. Just thought you should know.

  5. I like the subtlety of this. It makes me think of the expression, "Be here now."

    I like the idea that you can open and close a dream--seemingly at will.

  7. Loved the last line- the fact that we are alive and that is enough. That itself is enough. Lovely!

  12. Exactly, the value of time is always the same for everyone and the one who is truly in the present can reap the benefit of it. :)

  14. I believe, we all are alive, but the one who understands we are alive only for some "time" can make that difference. That realization hits very rarely !! Thanks Shailaja for reading :)

  16. In just few words, you explained the wonderful experience of dreaming. You have penned it aptly that a dream can be opened and closed. It sounds interesting.
