Your Life of Waiting

Marching ahead, stuffed under the shade of aspirations,
the pile of ‘when…then’s stands taller than ‘right now’s,
your dreams of tomorrow trump your perks of the present,
your mighty ambitions paid for by hesitant celebrations.
And thus, fuelled by desires, your life of waiting never ends!

Unless — You, the one shackled to successes, takes a plunge,
to discover life isn’t lived in the lucid dreams driving you,
but in gratitude of the present, reveling on its finiteness,
in borrowed time, nudging towards a reality you so crave.
And thus, propelled by passion, your life of bliss would begin!
