Journey
Commenced my journey from the womb of horizon
Was pure, purest creation of thy lord then
Walked through clouds divine, amazing like heaven
Landed earth, with the question
I’ll really reach my destination when?
A new transformation, a new life, with lots of desperation
No clear vision but with determination
Landed to search life’s intention
Stepped out in fields, with zest and zeal
Within my inner perception, soul anxious for exploration
Met with many got closed with few
Alas! Walked alone, separation is the truth
Still unaware of ambition, walking in elation
What I’m sent for? Searching my appellation
In this journey of ice and fire
Fate always wins, irrespective of desire
Walking and walking, for my destination
When no one knows, survival’s reason
Hurdles on routes, but have to walk on
No matter what happens show goes on
Struggles are everywhere eventually losing my dears
Hoping to end my search and loosen my fear
Tired of now struggling I guess end is near
I reached, somehow to the world unknown
I saw a light crystal clear, sparking bright, getting clearer
Within this world I searched but answer was within me
Inside my soul, I got all the answers I asked from destiny
Finally I got my destination I hoped, I wished, I searched for
But I got to know these all were mere illusion
I have realized that destination is just a vision
That keeps you moving to get what you desired
But real is journey, the journey most admired.
