A Billion Dream

I wonder how I dream 

In the dicey vastness!

Like the Sun burning for a gleam,

Or like a star twinkling for the thoughtless! 

I dream with my wide eyes 

In the incessant darkness -

To the glow of my soul's essence 

In the deepest happiness.

I am anxious about the core

Can my dreams fly? OR

Will they cut my feathers

To crawl down to my woes!

I speak less, I value more -

I don't blame anyone.

I admire my life 

And dream all day!

I am not lone anymore

When I open my eyes to dream! 

They give me wings 

Not to fly but to stay grounded!

I burn, with every dream 

Like those stars for the mindless.

Why did I wonder? They said,

"I am meant for you only".

My dream is my own,

The only language I feel,

The only poem I paint,

The only success I foresee!
