i have to leave this place
the walls, the stones, the trees, all so achingly familiar and just as painfully a trap.. this is where i'm left every single night after the day is done.. after the work is over, its time for everyone to go home and for me to return to this beautiful cage where memories live
some say i'm crazy to want to leave... its the most beautiful place.. full of magic, softness, stillness, memories... a place where i belong...
and yet it is the place i feel the most alone.. where things are always as they "were".. there's no 'are' or 'will be'

you know, i have recently realized.. sometimes we are so engrossed in running after something, so used to it, we simply forget the reasons as to what it was that got us so interested in the first place...
then times change, seasons change..
but we, too busy in our chase, forget to notice these changes..
and somehow don't even realize or acknowledge as to how we have too have gradually changed...
at the end of the day, it's all fluid... :)
it's hard to express my thoughts and feelings about your blog...nice read and and a beautiful blog...would love to read further from it...:)
@anonymous.. that was beautifully expressed.. do i know you??
@ashfaque Ismail.. thank you. hope to see your comment again
@ anne... thank you. and no you don't. but your writings talk of something i myself have been going through..and i couldn't help but comment.. :)
all i can say is, there is so much more out there, all you need to do is allow yourself to look around..you couldn't help but notice how wonderful things can be, if only we allow ourselves to look and perceive...and ofcourse, not commit the crime of comparing it with what never was..
i don't mean to sound preachy, but that's something i honestly believe, and am trying to work towards myself... :)
