Dreams To Die For

As a kid I thought, dreams are the situations we face at night,

When there is no noise and no murmur,

But later I realised, dreams are the realities which,

In near future we want to face and pamper.

My dreams are my identity, reason for my living,

They are quintessential for my existence,

Various difficulties are on my way, That are to be dealt with high degree of persistence.

Dad said, "May be you're going in the wrong direction",

I told let me try for "oops" is better than "what if",

Yes Dad, you'll not always be there to handle me,

But, I have to make my way through these mountains and cliffs.
