Strategic Time Out

Rating: 5.0


Thanks-many thanks.
For leaving me alone;
My heart gets rid of bondage,
A bondage in your magnetic circle.

For Diamelen's majesty
I was Arsat;
I left my brothers and the world.

I learn I was about to make a friendship
With Donne-we are the world;
We have our own one-aside the universe.
I feel I was flying with you and
Under the heaven the earth was dead;
And I dare not and care not but tread over it
While my feet covered and protected
By the shoes of proud and madness.

I come to the conclusion-
I was selfish like the true lovers,
Nothing to share to the surrounding but
Other self's flesh and blood and mind;
What an escape from your dynasty!

Oh! What a joy and freedom I feel
A freedom with full of options
As if I am in a fertile and fruitful fruit garden.
I stretch my hands forward and my eyes to the sky,
My mind and heart is tied with the measureless mirth
That seems to give me a kick to run me as fast as news.

But the very thought of running (as the forlorn to Keats)
Acts like a reminder set in a cell phone to a busy C.E.O,
And compels me to look aside;
Where are you to share this?
Who will run with me to this field of fun and freedom?

Now I see the matter…..
Yes my leaps are gifted with a rosy smile
When remind your planned and plotted speech-
"strategic time out."

A very profound piece of writing. Freedom of the self is the ultimate glory of life. Freedom from our emotions may bring us peace of mind but man must be imprisoned in feelings to feel he is alive. A wonderful introspective write.
