Dreams the Only Thing Left For Free
Why are dreams the only thing left to free?
Apart from the air we just breathe
Even birth has a monetary value
Bringing life to this new world a child so pure
Asked once a man, about his dreams
He said
All I want is what I desire
My desires are not a faint of heart to perspire
Normality and Peace is what I dream everyday
Yet I learn is its just a mind’s play
Not seeking for lot of monetary gains
Nor a place where everyone’s a saint
Just seeking normality in Life, which I dream everyday
But Yet I am just a fool to realize it’s a game that my mind plays
No Interest in Being the richest in town
Neither a king with a golden crown
Seeking for true love and faith in prayers
Waiting for answers and prayers to be heard
I’m Not a Man with a huge rapport, said he,
Just one of the normal kind
Political Borders are meant for one’s who see
But I am the One who is out to seek
Seeking for a normal truth, a truth about my dream
Why is it ,unachievable, making me bend down and scream
A Normal person , I am, Unable to See beyond Walls
Yet I try to take a leap and see if it falls
A drop of water can make a flame of fire go cold
Then why do the brave men not be Bold?
Not asking here for sacrifices, he emphasized
Just seeking for peace, and nobody to be criticized
For discrimination and separation is all a game
For we all humans are left to blame
Fame Power and Money is most abnormal game
I am just a Normal still understanding this mental pain
Alas at the end I feel Lost,
Loosing everything at Everything’s Cost
Not bothered weather I shout it out loud or I scream
That I am not yet afraid to Dream
Gazed into his eyes I do not know why
I did not feel weather to smile or cry
Because when someone can just limit his numbers till infinity
I still have my dreams for free
