The Cross roads.
The cross roads,
I remember now;
Carrying loads,
Of wilderness.
In memory’s palace,
My perfect room-
And the dreams
That love would bloom,
In togetherness;
And quicken my steps,
In hopeful haste,
Onwards,
To meet and rest.
But now I stand,
Alone and stare,
The home is quiet,
Cold and bare,
The sun’s set,
So I look and yearn,
By the distant,
Lights that burn,
The earths smells
Familiar,
But seems-
Unknown.
Vertigo,
Is from,
An earthly flight,
That spins our world,
Ever so slight,
So I trace my steps,
Back to the spot,
Where we had met,
But from where I got
Lost, to only learn-
The directions of
A wrong turn.

Wish if there had been an undo button in life too. Anyways, I am beginning to fell in love with rhyme again.'only to learn the directions of a wrong turn' says it all.

Rich and pleasantly direct. I adore the rhymes... something that I can never create :)
Mikimbizi...glad you liked... :)
though i rather admire your allusions more...
i guess you don't need rhymes when you can make ripples... :)
:-) nice...
Reminded me of a few lines at another unsuccessful attempt of mine...
Long waits...
Along corridors straight
A gaze to test
The mountains high
And the faraway sky
A quiet flutter
Of the unknown veil
to cleanse the soul
and mend the hole
Tattered remains
of life's gains
To see them bend
At His hem...
