Musings

As I close my eyes, the mind grazes high,
The memories of the journey flashes by
Wondering, I ask myself again and again
Why and what is it that I am heading to?
And what is it that I am leaving, too.

A few friends may be here and there,
A few faces that barely care,
A few places not far away from here,
A few fears that I surpassed with the flair,
And a few fears that still persist to scare.

A few sad tears of matters gone so bad,
A few happy tears of the joys I had,
Success and failures that drove me mad,
Long days of desperate wait and vacant stare
And a few sweet moments not long but rare.

As I scan these different scenes of my life
I relive those ups and downs without strife
These have made me wonder what is there in store,
And so I shall never fail to realize meanwhile
That these memoirs make the trip so worthwhile.
