I Dreamt A Dream


Times when I just sit in a corner,
Staring somewhere far above me,
Resting my vision somewhere perfect,
Somewhere perfect, where it’s hard to see,
Pressing my legs against my skin,
I feel like, I shouldn’t dream,
Single tear travelling down my face,
Laying on my chin for a second,
Dropping, leaving me alone again,
Placing my happy times, days,
Aligning them in front of sorrow,
Victim of my own shadows,
Darkness prevails over me,
Time tickles down in seconds,
Minutes, hours, days, eternity,
Dream dreamt as a dream,
Remains forever as a dream,
Pain suffices for some time,
And reality overcomes,
As a flailing shadow,
This was just the beginning,
Remaining life lost somewhere,
Somewhere within the depths,
Of the lost dream,
I dreamt a dream once,
It remained forever as a dream.

How does it feel when dreams remain unfulfilled.when that greatest thing,the most desired of all thing remains as a mere thought in your mind.my belief has always been that pain heals with time.but pain of a broken dream always remains until you die.i think my life would change if i'm unable to make it into reality.i think a dream follows you forever.i think i will follow mine if there is a life after this until i achieve what i seek.i dont know whether i will make it or not but i will follow it till the end.no matter how many lives it takes.i still dream a dream.

  1. Don't give it up. I know you can achieve whatever you want in life. It takes time. Patience is a virtue. If you have it, everything will be ok.

    Love the poem. Makes me ponder.

  2. Champi, you are maturing fast. It’s sometimes hard to have to portray just thoughts and you are more of a conceptual writer. But this one differs from rest and how! There are several things I liked about this one starting with the end of your abrupt sentencing style. Secondly, a departure from the fantasy, which can get tiring after a while, and dabbling into the human stuff. Thirdly, this poem, I repeat, has a mature feel to it. It reflects the confidence you have gained in your own abilities. And going by the prolific nature off your blog, it is indeed commendable that you still dish out impressive stuff. Lastly, I would like to point of the specific parts which I liked (too many but I’l list the top ones)
    1. …Placing my happy times, days,
    Aligning them in front of sorrow..
    2. Dream dreamt as a dream,
    Remains forever as a dream
    Lovely alliteration in (2)

  8. I sure hope to goodness that all your dreams are fulfilled.
    I know reality is harsh and things always don't go the way we had planned they would but then again without our dreams we are nothing.
    About your poem...it sounded perfect.I can only see maturity and profound insight into the human psyche through these lines..come to think of it you're slowly turning into one of my favorite poets on Blogger. :)
    Cheers and dream on!
