Best Poems Written by Arushi Aggarwal

Jar of Dreams

 Closed within

  Submerged in a bin

 Lay my dreams

 Enveloped in screams

Little by little , the jar broke

  And the dreams spoke

Replaced by a new path

One that I could never follow without facing wrath

Had I listened to my heart and not to you ,

The forgotten dreams would rise anew

Alas! I was blinded by the greed

An unhealthy obsession to breed

For now , the jar has a different glow

As fragile as the wind's blow

A wrong step is all it takes

For the earth to quake and your heart to ache
