I am still awake

The eclipse is gone, the night has dawned

And in a while, night will also go

but I am still here watching the optics play and rest

Who is heavenly? Who is unwavering?

clearly, its me!

The sun, the earth, the cosmos - you just play your games


It is dark. Who is consuming the darkness?

Its me!

Give me a moment, the darkness will be gone

Will it be gone because I consumed it?

Or may be you gifted me a moment, so it will go

will it be gone because it had to go?

Or may be I have to gift you light, so it will goi

is it the destiny of darkness to die

Or may be its your fate, you can’t hold darkness like I do, so it will go


It is vast, the vacant spaces and free thoughts

Its mine

In a moment, all of it will be occupied

Don’t take my moment or the spaces will be gone

Will it be gone because you occupy the vastness?

Or may be you snatched the moment, so it will go

Will it be gone because it had to go?

Or may be I have to lose my openness, so it will go

Is it the destiny for eyes to be occupied

Or may be its your fate, you can’t keep free spaces, so it will go
