I closed my eyes, opened a dream
Took a peek into my past
A canvas with no memories or souvenirs
I realise, my time, trickled away…
I closed my dream,opened my eyes,
Time still trickled, but,
I am awake and alive !
Awakening
I closed my eyes, opened a dream
Took a peek into my past
A canvas with no memories or souvenirs
I realise, my time, trickled away…
I closed my dream,opened my eyes,
Time still trickled, but,
I am awake and alive !

In just few words, you explained the wonderful experience of dreaming. You have penned it aptly that a dream can be opened and closed. It sounds interesting.

Loved the last line- the fact that we are alive and that is enough. That itself is enough. Lovely!

I believe, we all are alive, but the one who understands we are alive only for some “time” can make that difference. That realization hits very rarely !! Thanks Shailaja for reading 🙂

I like the idea that you can open and close a dream–seemingly at will.

I like the subtlety of this. It makes me think of the expression, “Be here now.”

Exactly, the value of time is always the same for everyone and the one who is truly in the present can reap the benefit of it. 🙂

Beautiful piece, Mal! I really enjoyed it. Only one tiny criticism, though. A number of your words after commas don’t have a space. Easy enough to fix though. Just thought you should know.
