Wishes And Horses Poem by Harshit Agrawal

There was a time when no one came
No friends to play in childhood game
No one to shelter from the rain
Nor the adolescent pain

Yet in my inner heart I knew
Secrets rare and secrets true
Were wishes horses, all would ride
Other dreamers by my side

Then one day I dropped my guard
I never did something so hard
In my heart I let others in
And found I had a friend

By one's and two's they gathered near
Absorbing all my darkest fears
A history we began to make
With our lives on stake

For youth need never fade away
As long as I can dream and play
On wistful horses I will ride
With other dreamers at my side
