...vacations started but ended soon,
travelling in the train and watchin' the sky with no moon.
I was little sad but happy too,
left far away my home, getting' close to the place that looked so new.
I was standin' at the door, appreciating every moment that goes by,
watchin' those lil lil huts and children all saying bye-bye.
many of those things werent new to me now,
But there was something that looked unusual, i wanted to exlain but dont know how? ? ?
Everything looked fine, we were travelling at great speed now,
But suddenly everything came to a standstill, well it was a breakdown.
We all moved out serachin' for some mean,
instead i turned right towards a jungle, unfolding its night beauty unseen.
Dark it was and scary too,
irresistable were the sounds from the jungle and stars in sky, moment back which was blue.
I kept walking and for many hours i dont know why?
rabbits zig-zag and deers firght back all of them so shy.
It wouldnt have been more i asked for,
When i found myself close to the waterfall.
OMG i said, '...am i dead! ! ! or still alive? '
Birds chirping, water flowing and those sounds, it was truely a paradise.
I loved the place so much, wanted to be there for some more time,
but gettin' back to the train that could move any time, struggled my mind.
When i saw a cute girl, i asked'What are you doing? '
She pointed out to her lil puppy that loves running.
She was afraid but not after we had a long chat,
Its time to move, i searched my bag and offered her a Kit-Kat.
She was so happy, she made a friend new,
little she knew, she would be alone again in her lonely blues.
Well little i knew that god gifted her a paradise,
She gave me a kiss and said 'you were so nice...'
I an hour i was in my train,
thought if i was dreaming or if it was the same.
I wasnt happy as i left place where there was so much to see,
In short i describe it as a incomplete journey.
