The beach

Prologue: Semester holidays and you don't know what to do, but there is a storm inside you which searches for peace, serenity and calm. Some place quiet where you hear yourself breathe, where you feel the warm rays of the sun and cold breeze of nature so I decided to take a step away from the sea of humans and traveled towards actual sea; Pondicherry and introspection.  


A day at the beach, it teaches you a lot,
It teaches you to be patient, how little you have got.
Sea shells, pearls if you are lucky and a lot of sand,
A pinch of sand in the universe, the place where you stand.
The sunrise, the sunset,  the lovely colour dance,
I stood there watching, dipped in trance.
When I look back, I see my footsteps, washed by the wave
Like time washes away the past, the past that I crave.

Throwback time is over, the chaotic life is calling,
I know I can't ignore it, so I am forestalling.
The waves for the last time, touches my feet,
I am one with my life at this moment, I am at ease.
