spinning

Sometimes I feel that the world is spinning around me so very quickly.

I pause to catch my breath and to stop my pounding and sometimes

fragile, aching heart and I hope that just this once,

the world would be waiting for me for I have been good.

 But the world continues to move and turn 

without a backward glance at me... without a care.

And I find myself hurrying to play catch-up with the world, 

with the people around me. 

I run walk in circles briskly, 

chasing something...

something that I can't quite identify, 

something that eludes me,

something I can't quite understand.

And because there is nothing much I can do

after having tried my best...

and because I am rather tired of this 

chasing and running after the wind thing,

I decide to sit calmly for a little while

to watch the world go spinning by.

And what an awesome view it is.

I think I will sit here for a little while longer. Join me?
