To seek,
outside of ourselves
in order to find ourselves
What bullshit is that…
Yet we keep on asking
more from life outside
swinging back and forth
back and forth
far beyond smiles and heartbreaks
to feel meanings and answers
in this life and beyond
Only to feel
more fresh and windy questions back…
I see ‘Time’ sitting on a swing
held firmly by long ropes of ‘Destiny’
moving to and fro
to and fro
same beginnings , same going nowhere
same smiles, same heartbreaks
same looking outside,
this infinite sky of desires
that big mountain of dreams
to and fro
to and fro
Every effort to go even more
bringing us back even more
Yet this godly child in us
keeps us moving
on these swings of life
Hope mistress pushing…
Fear monsters dragging…
Fresh winds blowing…
and hands
still
glued
firmly on the ropes...
To and fro
back and forth
March 2022, Dubai
