  My dreams and I

User Rating:

9.6 /10
(8 votes)



  Up above the sky
In the faces of aloof stars
I see images of my dreams
Ever growing in stature
My aspirations
Larger-than-life

Sometimes, I wonder
whether I have devised my dreams
or dreams have invented me?
Years passed by,
among my endless dreams
a few came true
and many fell through
But, each of my dying dreams
gave birth to a new one
Though,
My hairs threaten to turn white now
and wrinkles tardily become possessive
My eyesight warns me of an eternal sunset
and smiles often betrays my true feelings;
yet, I dare to dream!
and wish to chase it
beyond the horizon

It's true!
I love chasing my dreams
I wanna catch up with
the flying butterflies
I wanna talk to my shadow
during the fading lights
I wanna hold forever
the illusive rainbows
And,
I wanna chase my dreams
until my own fantasies
take control of myself
and my desperations
make me feel that
'reality hurts'

‘But, each of my dying dreams
gave birth to a new one…’

It is recycling of dream in new concept and canvas.
Dream is cream of life.

Really powerful imagery with the selective utilization of metaphor and personification, , , , and also the intense message tranformed into a spiritual direction where the dream is the moment where we can begin to meet ourself before our arrival..............
