Nightmares and Nonsense <br />Broken dreams and ghosts from the past, <br />And love like beads scattered on the thread of life <br />Joined together in the hope of comfort somewhere <br />Lonely legs that walk someplace, unknown to the depths of minds which crave for more <br />Littleness in some thoughts and actions <br />Laziness in loving and living <br />Despair is all that fills the bucket beneath my body <br />Hope it overflows, <br />Let it into seas of sanity that will clean them <br />Let it into books of wisdom that will soothe them <br />Into the dreams of children that will purify them <br />Into my mother's bosom of love <br />Into the beauty of things <br />Let it Overflow into the depths of my soul <br />Where one day solace i will find<br /><br />Sowmya Sundaram<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lifewards/
