I didn’t know what to write

Three years have flown by,
Like the mist in the sky,
With little moisture in my eye,
I revisit my journey taken so far,
So far it has brought me from dreams,
Realities hitting hard as the minutes pass by,
I thought of flying high in the sky,
Now I wish to be on the grounds not so high,
To be away from home all on my own,
Liberty for all, freedom unlimited,
Is what I liked to believe then,
Not long ago it took to realize,
What matters is where my heart lies,
Not places far away, but back home,
Friends are many, promises numerous,
With each traversing his own path,
Running fast to catch with the fading era,
What promises, what matters is me, myself,
Do I stand a chance to win a heart or two,
Lonely still in a crowd of people,
Who are mistaken to be close, yet so far for me,
Lessons learnt are copious,
some good, some not so bad,
Life comes a full circle, I have heard,
Where am I on this circle, I wonder.
