Sneak Peak

I lie down on the bed. I am exhausted. Emotionally. Mentally. I try to sleep. I check the watch. It’s nine thirty. Too early to sleep. Too late to stay awake. In the conveyor belt of my mind, I check each tag of the luggage it carries to check which ones mine…

Sleep.

Try to sleep.

Sleep

Confused

Darkness

Love

Hate

Hate = love?

Close your eyes

Empty the mind

Sleep

Sleep

Fill the emptiness

Fill my darkness

Fill my heart

Close your eyes you fool

Close

Last kiss

Smile

My eyes close and I am still smiling…

During day,
we make a card castle.
Sleep take them one by one.
what remains after the last card?
Peace.
Will you pawn peace for a card castle?
liked the structure of thought.

Don't be confused. The answer is there right in your post. Empty your mind before going to sleep and enjoy the peace.

I can completely identify with that state of mind - when your mind suggests sleep and your heart cannot help drowning in that mesmerizing, enchanting feeling and you cannot help floating in the moments...

Here's wishing you many more of these... :)

Dear MIP,

I never took anybody's advise, but when it is said in such beautiful words... it's hard to resist. Glad you liked it :)

Dear Puneet,

Thanks so much

Old Monk, I wish emptying the mind was so easy... my mind works at double speed before sleeping. All ideas come either when I am about to sleep or when I am commuting.

Dear Raghav,
Thanks. Hope you keep enjoying.
