So it happened..

So it happened,
I landed in the desert,
Where there was a rose,
In full bloom.

So it happened,
I found a mirage,
Gateway to happiness,
Wide open.

So it happened,
I reached there,
In the middle of nowhere,
I found love.

It happened,
When I plucked the rose,
The mirage disappeared,
Love was lost,
Amid despair.

Has happened,
In the past,
In the vast golden sand,
Where only sun has its say.

Mirages fade,
As storm breaks free,
Changing hazy lines of the sand,
Rewriting their destiny,
In a fraction of time.

So it happened again,
As the camels walked endlessly,
In search of a destination,
As the journey sealed their fate.

As long days refused to pass by,
Cold nights quiver in silent sigh,
As eyes looked at the twinkling sky,
The moon lent a restless smile.

I am assured, this is the time,
When I can get away with the baggage,
I am assured, this is the place,
Where I can conceal the pain.

So vast and huge,
This desert is,
I want to bury here,
The baggage of sadness,
So that it neverever follows me again!
