Narrow alleys

DSC05553Standing at the edge of the ocean wide

As my eyes soaked in the vastness of the sea

Without a warning something stirred inside

My heart ached, I found my eyes misty

 

 

Blindfolded by ambition and ruthless desire

I had come far in my circuitous journey

My mind had managed to contain the fire

burning within, wrapped in the thrills of discovery

 

Staring at my new world, of boundaries devoid

My mind traveled back in time to that singular place

Of narrow alleys and chatter that could fill the void

Within my heart, bring to my soul some solace..

 

Many roads I have traveled, many  paths traversed

Through many an enchanted land I have been

Though I go on absorbing experiences diverse

To those crowded alleys I shall always lean
