Feathers of birds keep flying
counted sheep
jumping here and there
I wonder,
how our world can ever asleep ?
disguised as light, wings of thought
tickle my ears
refusing me, my asleep
denying me, that witnessed beauty
of paradise
those dreams waiting to be unleashed
raging inside, like a fire
Rising up magma,
to emotions of my mantle
burning my feet
scolding me inside
keeping me awake, all night
A candy floss to a child
a college admission to a high schooler
a “Yes” reply, to a desperate confession
a pay check to an adult
Money to dreams
opportunity to only, some
dreams made - reality, fulfilling expectations
but only for the few
which one - are you?
as heavy as boulders
upon which reality of bridge shall form
upon the serene and calm waves of mind
you build in disguise
hampering my nights
shivering me with cold sweats all night
keeping me anxious overnight
what are these ?
a web of dreams that keeps me alive…..
