In The Moment (a poem)

Many desires unfulfilled,

many moments just slipped,

many emotions unfelt,

many departures but not all left.

           Many goals but not keen,

           many places unseen,

           many chuckles unheard,

           many visions stay blurred.

Many scents not smelt,

many issues left undealt,

many days lived mindless,

many times spent running aimless.

           My life's been a series of unfinished stuff,

           have lived much but not lived enough,

           my perspective needs to be fixed,

           have to get right the basic gist.

I try to take it all in,

try not to spread myself too thin,

have realised that each moment passed is each moment missed,

only living in the moment will lead to true bliss.

           You too open your senses all,

           before night befalls,

           take it all in with open arms,

           before life slips away like sand from your palms.
