silent sojourns :)

Lying on your berth, with your curtains drawn, with only the views outside your window and your thoughts for company. A little something that struck me while on a jouney like such, while enroute to my hometown.... :)

My window is misty with little droplets of water, and the moon is shining at me through them..travelling with me, my companion in this silent jouney. My curtains are drawn and Im in my own little space..lit by the duffused rays of the moonlight, split in dazzling colours. Its the most enthralling view of the night Iv ever experienced, one that can inspire poetry. As the train gathers pace, we leave behind the vegetation cover and enter civilization , into the industrial terrain. Suddenly the serenity of the moonlit sky is broken by the blinding lights of the halogens from the factories. The acrid stench of the chemicals and rotting waste hits my nostrils and I know I am back to the world the way it is, as opposed to the way it was meant to be. I know..I am back to being human.
