Often a thought
passes my mind
What if this existence
is not real?
This body, this breath
and touch is nothing
but what I see in a dream.
And I will wake up
Somewhere as oblivious
as I am now of
where I am sleeping.
A rich man waking up poor
And the poor will be rich.
Some will thank for
The dream is over
While others will cry
for their dream is wasted
in chasing a mirage.
Inspired by Rumi’s Masnawi , was reading his famous quote while this poem happened in my mind .
This place is a dream. Only a sleeper considers it real. Then death comes like dawn, and you wake up laughing at what you thought was your grief.
A Day Dreamer's Diary 
So profound, so deep.
I am proud that , I could relate.
Beautiful write.

I’m amazing!
In fact there’s this one thing I’m really looking forward to but it’s not done yet… I’m mostly in the excitedly anticipating and praying phase of it. Lol, I’ll tell you once it’s done…
I’ve been good though. Alhamdulillah.
And oh, well the bitstrips not being available and having changed is sad… I don’t know much about such apps, but I hope you find another one soon 🙂
How’re you though??

Frozen bodies,countless fragments.
But I want Whole.
Spirit…… stone and flesh,
Throb and quiet saving.
Can be and can not be.
Can they be or may be
I.
You can be
YOU?
Hierarchical games
on mats or on shoulders…
Marble block white with reliefs;
Latent that close or explodes
and exalts always.
Search continues form,
Understanding rapport between full and empty.
Completion.
What is the limit
in which “YOU” tend to “I”nfinity?
