Just when i thought that it was the new beginning i realized it was all over!!
Just when i thought life was good, came disasters by the dozens sweeping me away.
I tried hard to fight them off to realise that time has just flown away.

I dreamt of things that i could think of only in dreams....
After all I was a hollow man with shallow dreams

I dreamt of luxury, I dreamt of paradise, I dreamt of a world with total peace,
where swords stuck none, no gun battles, where barbs did not draw countries to fight
Where children were taught how not to fight, where they taught kids good and not to fright, where politics was all about better governance and not used as a means to loot, where people lived with no distraught and led lives without fear of none, where gods were happy cos people were good, minded their work and thought ill of none, worked hard for themselves family and kin, ate their meals and slept at peace...

These are all fiction... and can never happen cos it requires guts to break the mould, get into action and start a revolution, alas... all that i could do was to be mean and rude or ill be sucked into the oblivion for thinking good about the world... I have a family I have a job.. I cannot fathom why i cant do good, as the harder i try i only realise that dreams turn to reality only where there is courage, conviction to change... It can turn real when brave men run across the borders hoping for the new sun...

Life is the same, unpredictable and dry, thoughts seem like an oasis in the vast deserted concrete terrains.

I realized I can do nothing and only follow.. as i came to terms with the fact that I am hollow
