The Forgotten Past

 I thought I was doing well But its cold claws came back Gripping me with its familiar chill And I still cant my scream I thought I saw glimpses of you But it must have been forgotten A hot summer that passed so quickly Y,Y

 The year ahead I have just a simple wish To begin enjoying again the small things in life The holidays, birthdays, trips and wins To look forward to it all But not worrying about the future I want to celebrate and enjoy and live in the present moment To the year ahead. 

 

 To look at the world again through a different lens To realize again we are not what we perceive All my life has been chasing on an unending race To realize we are the only runner Finally, I have a state of mind Peace and tranquility To let go of my external goals And listen to my heart

       I felt that the pandemic has stolen time from me 2 years of my youth spent in lockdown Now, I find myself compensating for lost time Trying to fast-forward life Going to clubs, thinking about marriage and long term career Am I really living life in the present? Or is time really living me?

       It took a while to realize that death is not the end all be all The inevitability of death is an opportunity to live better Knowing our mortality motivates us to the live the life we want It still makes me and gives me sleepless nights But death is not the end all be all

       La Vie En Rose: Life through rosy glasses.  It depicts a time in life when someone falls in love When they see the world through rose tainted glasses How long does the honeymoon last? Can it be eternity?
