A DAY SPEND IN OBLIVION

Sometimes the basic truths of life becomes oblivion and you live a dream

A dream of peace,

A dream of connect,

A dream of love,

A dream of respect,

A dream of concern,

A dream of fulfilment,

A dream completing the missing gap in one’s life

These dreams are by product of the wants that exists in ones sub-conscious mind.

The desires let’s the heart go wild & leads the path of oblivion

The act of impulse leading to glittering light

But one should not live in a dream

(This does not mean that one should not achieve one’s dream)

I reiterate - one should not live in a dream

The dream which makes you forget the realities of life

A dream which doesn’t let you see:

that (I) a tornado is building up behind the peaceful scene

(II) that the connect is superficial

(III) the love and concern does not have that depth

(IV) the feeling of fulfilment is a trance

(V) the gap has broadened

One must avoid this trance of living in a dream which secludes and leaves you high and dry, alone and struggling to stay above the waves.

Dream - though you must - you must dream to achieve - achieve that greater height - that depth - that peace - that happiness .
