Buried dreams

Author: Munaj Gul Muhammad

You have the dreams,

To come true

A dream of bliss,

The dream of your youth

Hold fast to your dream,

For the dream dies

Thou has found the man of your dreams,

You dream about a bird,

That bird cannot fly,

The broken-wings,

Wanted to spread its wings,

There is a place the bird wanted to go that no one else knows,

Where mysteries abound and excitement of it grows.

The bird wished to dream more,

But its dreams were buried,

No one knows when the dream grows!

The bird sleeps in the clouds, dream in the sky,

To keep dreams as life passes by,

Its dreams kept him sane,

But the world seems welcoming until he enters it,

The bird wishes to fly,

And dreams of happiness,

A life without pains,

But that dream ever remains only a dream,

To come true!

The dream hurts him a lot,

And today, the dreams have been buried
