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 ---You can purchase my book of Poems "Temet Nosce"------Where you will find the rest of my poems-- --- Mustafah Mun
