The Power to Dream

A life I chose,
Of loving those,
Very animated few,
And in lieu,
I gave up being normal.

Streaks of calm,
A star-crossed palm,
Flavour my bewitched brew,
Searching for that ever new,
I fell in love with the search.

Sleepless nights and burnt out days,
Breathless years of ceaseless chase,
Focused on that single spot,
As I joined dot after dot,
I gave birth to my inner child.

Paused now, and standing tall,
As I wait for a tumbling fall,
Burn, and let the ashes rise to see,
To reach for that realm of fantasy,
I am ready to create again.


To everybody who has stood by me all these years and seen me through my madness. I hope each and every one of you get to live your dreams. Thank you!

  5. @sonia & @sonia: *Hugs* and that's just for being you. Hope you'r feeling better now.

    @grafx: Yipeee! You'r back! Ahem... It's enough for me that you are here now. Never mind `all those years' which went by, just be there for `all those years' which are yet to come... :o) *Hugs*

    @rapz: Aha! But the mood has so many myriad pulls and pushes that make it go this way n that. Can't really help it! :D Not that anybody would know `the moods' better than you :P

    @mirage: Maybe being mad has got nothing to do with making sense. Or maybe you are just as mad! :P
