I want to go
To a far away land
To live as a perfect stranger
As I look into a hollow future
I wish to sew it down with twains of hope
While walking through the strange streets of masses
I want to go
To an abandoned sea shore
To talk to the waves and the sand
As I wish to distract myself
From a past, that haunts me every day
I wish to start my life from the scratch somewhere
I want to go
To a frightening villa
To shed all my fears to the darkness
As I wish to see scary ghosts
To learn about their agonizing experiences
That prompted them to be blood-sucking spirits at nights
I want to go
To raft down a violent river
To play with the thrill of life at the edge
As I wish to be in a team game
Fighting for a common cause with all might
And to feel the egoist-spirit after taming the river
I want to go
To a humor festival
To laugh on my knees as they crack jokes
As I find joy in faces all around
I wish to fill my heart with new dreams
While writing about the cheerful images I have seen
I want to go
To drench in a rainforest
To shed all the tears in the stream of rain
By embracing, the divine drops of rain from the sky
While searching for new meanings for the torture called life

Love this last stanza:
As I wish to baptize all my sins
By embracing, the divine drops of rain from the sky
While searching for new meanings for the torture called life
And I like the one about wanting to meet the ghosts, as well.
Thanks for reading :)
I want to go to the beach in the picture :)
Yeah,the beach had a weary look,but beautiful. Thanks for reading :)
Nice one Nithin..If dreams were horses; often reigned in..
Thanks.When life gets tougher, sometimes its not a bad idea to take refuge in wild dreams to feel better. :)
I love the interplay of phictures and words -- and then that "baptismal" conclusion. Well done.
oh I'd love that escape to a faraway land and a beach.. I certainly need it sometime for sure!
My One Shot
Better get your bags packed - you've got a lot of places you want to go!
Interesting One Shot!
Great post of poetry and images that tell a story of escape into new experience. Happy One Shot!
I love your dreams and hopes. My feeling is never stop dreaming nor writing about them.
This is such a vivid wish list.
Glad you shared it with One Shot
