I walk alone

To the endless vastness

On this path forlorn

I walk alone

I walk alone

There was a time when I didn’t know

What should I do, where do I belong!

But in this moment of time

To that far unknown

I walk alone

I walk alone

A promise in my heart

To amend what was torn

For the dreams I had

For the dreams not known

I walk alone

I walk alone

This is my journey

Losing sight of the shore

For the first time

The shadows doesn’t scare me anymore

Igniting the lights within

Fighting on my own

I walk alone

I walk alone

Everything inspires me

To appreciate what was sown

Looking at the sky

And this seraphic dawn

Indeed life has it way

To show what was not shown

But here I am now

Walking all alone

In the midst of chaos

Looking at all the smiles

Grateful and optimistic

Without any fear and lies

I walk alone

I walk alone

#Poetry #walkingalone 

Under The Basho......my seven published Haiku

barefoot
I root myself
back again


moonless sky
all the stars
disappear too


highway
the shadows of grass
lean back


autumn equinox
the weight of thoughts
drowns each step


twilight song
the everlasting ring
of a temple bell


moonlit sky
the stillness of water
in my thoughts


a cuckoo’s song
the aroma of rain
in my coffee cup

So, glad to be accepted in Under The Basho.

A Rispetto.....

Shimmering crescent moon ascending the sky

As I behold this fleeting sublime moment

Through the eternal unheard whispers of time

The tales in my heart and the endearment

The reflections in the stillness of water

A journey to the soul as my mind wanders

A sudden rush of thoughts sweep me far away

To a distant land where just love paves the way
