Everyone has said that famous line at least thrice in their lives, "Time flies by so quickly."
And I am no exception, but I never always meant it, it's now that I am feeling it,
It's like a revolting fire inside, torching me alive with regrets at the wasted opportunities,
It's giving me well-needed slaps on my face, is this my wake up call?
My whole life has been a dream, wasted away with every day, meaningless, purposeless,
Maybe it's not meant to be like this, that's why I am feeling this way,
I know my mind will always be wandering and dreaming,
But what if.. What if I could still dream and wander while staying awake?
This sounds possible, and seems to be exactly what I need,
My mind, you are always high, without ever touching drugs, always stoned, without ever getting drunk,
And I used it as an excuse to let all these days fly me by,
But what if there was something more to all this?
And this beautiful thing is revealing its peak to me?
This is an invite to the hike and trek of a lifetime, and I am taking it,
So, as from today, I open my eyes wide awake,
And I will surely keep dreaming and wandering in my head,
But atleast I won't be fast asleep and missing out on the ropes that will help me climb till that peak,
Because, at the top, is where I want to be.
It's where I belong, and it's calling me.
