A fire burning fast, too slow to last

A journey back home
Too tiring to note
The destination fading in a distance
The heartache- a sign of resistance

Leaving behind the altitude sickness
But the sickness still exists 
In realty or myth
Many thoughts persist

A fire burning fast
Too slow to last
Bares itself in shallow dreams  
Like murky waters of gushing streams

What is it about midnight's quater
That reminds of these raging waters
Languishing a poet's verses 
For deliverance from charms and curses 

Free from prejudice
But the prejudice still exists 
In reality or myth
Many thoughts persist

Like anger in the soul
Lighting up like coal
Smothering beneath the thick blankets of cold
But no one discovers it, until its told
