Dream

I can dream, right?

I see the stars in the sky
and I feel the heat burning inside
But I do not feel the IM-possibility
The failure in reaching my goal

Time has taken its toll
what was once a blissful naivety
Is now a thoughtful whole

But I still dream

Doctored and careful as they may seem
I don't dream about reaching the stars
I know all there is for me is getting charred

But I still dream

I dream about my journey to the stars
The fun and the preparation
With anxieties and aspirations
For even if burnt scars and painful marks
are in my fate
My ability to dream is not lost till date

And I still dream

Dream about what-ifs and then whats
About interactions, actions and reactions
So what if they may never culminate
And it doesnt matter if conversations are mind generated

I still want to dream

About opportunities I may behold
Opportunities that will help me uphold
The promises of fulfilling my dreams to myself

I must dream

For dream drives my passion, mission and inner inhibition
To keep the motor running to keep the spirits alive
Rejections, dejection are all part and parcel
That doesnt stop me from giving that shine and sparkle

Dreams are the purpose of my life
Desires, drivers, may make me tired
For I am the shining star
Burning inside

Dreams are just the beginning
of my life-journey-ride
