HORIZON

It is the same struggle 

Every single day

At night,

I toss and turn

Not being able to fall asleep

Then again in the morning

I toss and turn

Not wanting to leave the bed

Every five minute nap

Snatches hours away

And when I finally get up

The sun is ready to shoot me

Beams right at my forehead

Mocks at my dismay

As if it was waiting

To give me a lecture

for wasting another day

Sermons after sermons

Explaining tenets of discipline

Forgetting that I once used to 

Wake up way before him

But what am I to say

And what am I to do

For how long can someone 

Drag their past into defence

I don't have a clue

Gone are those days

GONE or

LOST

What might befit 

Who cares !

But they must have taken me as well

I presumed

Where ?

I looked around

And saw the sun

Being swallowed by the horizon

I surmised

Horizon

That must be it

That is the place

The Lost and Found box

Of the Universe

Are you there ?

I whispered

Someone heard

But no one answered

One glimpse would suffice

That might prove I exist somewhere

So I cling with all my strength

To the bizarre hope

That's the only thing that's left

Anyways

I've looked at people

Looking at the horizon

And I've looked at the horizon too

What are they yearning for ?

What might be the cause of their longing ?

I wondered

I rejoiced

Because I am not all alone

Waiting

To be found

By someone

Somewhere

Over the Horizon
