As I lay here Encapsulated in softness I close my eyes tenderly For my dreams are placid Gossamer, floating wild yet gently My dreams are the sparkles My dreams are the ambers But my dreams are not dreams My dreams are honeyed streams Manifestation Of bliss, of love so pure
I am witness of a miracle I was born once as mortal clay Buried deep within, seeds of my dark fate They said, “You can change not, Your fate is forged, On iron pages it is wrought” Exclaimed I; “Does not moisture crack the seeds? Does not I carry that grows to reed?”
So I marched on barren lands Wildly searching that could damp Scared, a step with each heartbeat Thorns piercing and bleeding my feet To heavens I prayed in desperate I cried, Tears of agony in my eyes That moment bestowed upon me Our blood is the water that damps the seeds The more we bleed, the more we reap
Hence I was reborn amongst sunniest rays To taste the sweetness in bitterness To experience the noise in silence To listen the music in smiles To see the laughter in eyes
As I drift to sleep now I will not dream, I can never dream My reality is too beautiful, My reality is all I dream
Until that day when, My reality becomes only a dream, When my lids would turn stones And the blood in me runs dry Till that last day, I will use my blood To moist my seeds of fate
Dedicated to each one of us who struggled through their dark fate, who rebelled against failure
