wish i could touch the sun....


revolving around like earth
spinning in my orbit
mere gravity holding onto 
vast emptiness,endless horizons 
battling the spatial turmoils
as others pass by like comets
bring down chaos 
with frantic attempts to bring me down
i stand everyday
wipe the sand off my face
walk onto vast stretches of sand
wishing i could reach far
free from shackles of this orbit
touch the sun

it eludes me everyday
love and success
resembling the Sun
resulting from burning desires
till it peaks to satisfaction
then burns out everything
that's the End i desire
so everyday i bring up
my staircase to reach the sky
wishing i could touch the sun

for we share same 
intense heat from inside
some say "fire in the belly"
some hunger for success
but i know we are related
me and you,for we are same mass
emanating from same source
swimming in endless space
still holding onto each other
no matter the distances
some string is still attached
for i am enlightened
by your light only
some day i'll reach you
emerge from dark,submerge in you
till that day,everyday
i wish i could touch the sun

Wanderer...

of successes and failures
now made a truce
agreed! life is fair...

blaze of the eyes
reflections of the skies
conjuring the soul
collage of truth and lies

horizon still lures
journey is incomplete
magic wand of yester years
became the walking stick...

too weak to walk
too stubborn to bow down
sand of roads,
has become the soul
coloring the hue brown...

colors are fading
distances retreading
through wandering westerlies
this life is wading....

                                                         "the fallen poet"....


Prompt:The picture....the life of a person who carries on walking through life despite failures and successes.
