The sun didn't rise today
What if,
The moon left us
What if,
The planets deviated and collided
What if,
The earth moved from it's path
You see, routine is as much important, if not more, as adventure.
What if,
An external meteor or an internal quake broke the earth down into pieces
What if ,
One of the enormous possibilities that can end life, happened today
What if,
Life ended
What if,
Survived but were the only one to survive
Today,
Is a beautiful day
Today,
Is a blessing
Today,
Most of the things, if not all, are following their routine
Today,
I will enjoy the fresh air and make them an unforgettable memory
Today,
I will cherish the colors and absorb them into beyond the physical existence
Today,
I will hear the melodies and imbibe them into the soul
Today,
I will walk as if the legs were wings and there was no restriction
Today,
I will dress up and celebrate the physical form of life
Today,
I will feel the touch of the grass, air, water and silk
Today,
I will sleep a very calming sleep
Tomorrow,
Will be a new day again
And if the routine stayed
I will live the life to the fullest again
In the end,
No one will be there even though so many are there
In the beginning
We come alone
In the end
We will go alone
In the middle,
We meet many
We are all passengers to an unknown
Our experiences within
Are all alone
We can express and share but can feel alone
Live with all and love all
Stay happy within
Within is just you and only you.
Within is an unknown, waiting to be found!
