IF I COULD ENTER DREAMS

How easy it would have been

To show the life, I want to live

To the one I love

in his dreams

And here I am struggling

To get into his thoughts

To get a glance from him

To show that I am still breathing

Waiting for his response

Though time is fleeting

I craving for meeting

And my tongue ever ready for bleating

my heart’s beatings

But the fear of a negative reply

Makes me keep it within

For how much will I cry

I did try with my eyes

A little flicker still remains

which with me will die.

No one can enter other’s dreams

It is your craving heart that feeds you these creams.

To move ahead in life, we use such schemes

Such extremes.
