Did you know that footsteps transcend time? For a billion years ago, when the world was at its birth, Its offsprings spread forth, their word. They multiplied in numbers, Journeyed East, West, North and South, And Thus Began An evolution of mankind. They created, masterminded, Different races, cultures, tradition,  And Religion. For I tell you my kindred, If there were no evolution, we would be One Creed, One Race, And, One Religion. Hence, the world became separate entities. Separation, its undoing, As today, We stand Divided, As Nations, As Race, As Religion. Then, mankind began a new revolution, One where they thirsted for a united front, One where they seeked understanding, One where they soon became endangered, For their false misrepresentation, Of Race, Of Religion, Of Creed. Mankind now sees that footsteps taken alone, Has Divided,  Has Misrepresented , Has Destroyed,...

I wish I could be sixteen again, Watching you ride into the sunset, somedays I even think of it as sunrise, For you stay imprinted in my mind, A lonesome figure on his horse. There were the days when the Sun met the horizons of sand, There were the days of the windblown dust, They emptied the part of my soul, that unmistakably felt, like it collided with Earth's rare stones. I watch now, with an eagerness like never before, for the lonesome figure on his horse. He rode away one day towards East, And I have waited for him since. -shobana- All rights reserved.

Like an angel, I felt a descent, Upon my soul, Upon my being. I fell upon cobble stones, Put there by those, Of want, Of seek, Of mighty thrones. Were you the one? To carry me home, Bruised and burnt, Left all alone. Were you the one? Like an angel's descent, Kept me safe, From wicked harm. I felt a touch, I felt an embrace, That saved this life, From cliffs of deep. I shall arise, I shall dethrone, The ones who seeked, My wearisome soul. -shobana- All rights reserved.
