Defeated

Sharvi

I see my very own dreams

Laying defeated on the streets

They're dry

They're lifeless

Like renowned autumn's leaves

I count em the dreams of mine

They're more in number

They're much greater than nine

These dreams have now lost their shine, their glamour

How do I protect them?

For I'm no shining knight in an armour

All I can do is watch them disappear day by day

As my dreams on the streets like autumn's leaves lay

    A great analogy that fits so well as a metaphor. Indeed dreams are like leaves that sprout, shine and thrive for a time die, dry and blow away. A fave
