The Luminous Sky

While I was lying under the sky

with stars above,

my existence ceased to exist..

The inner child in him had always and always loved with all his heart... the bright light, the dark sky and the king of the right sitting in grandeur among them. What a scene, it was! For a 4 year old boy, a fantasy, a calling was witnessed like never before. His heart, soul and mind were drenching with the joy of being with the stars above and the night around. However, years after the course of life had gradually changed, he realised himself in the shoes of a mature man, who was tailing hard to prove himself, listening to everybody, but him, trying to find answers to his questions, endlessly struggling with relationships..Perhaps, somewhere deeply, the wreck was wider than the sailing ship had ever shown to anybody. One night, when the sleep broke up and, probably after sixteen long years, the eyes that kept ignoring had finally met the charm that stood above, in the sky.. I was so intrigued on seeing those innocent eyes until they sparkled a little and a tear flowed by the ear, bringing a smile on my face. Perhaps,

a dash of memories,

disappointments of the past,

regrets that came along,

and a habit of holding on,

pressed hard onto his forlorn heart that weeped… As the tears drifted down relentlessly, he was steadily slipping into the sacred spell of the night until it completely embraced him...
