BRIGHT NOSTALGIA

Dreams are set from the very beginning of our trek

We started from the smallest things we ever get

As we grow old with each running sec

Those simple wishes we started to neglect

With our worlds growing wider

and our thoughts going deeper

Simple things to us does not seem to differ

We just hold on the things we prefer

Great dreams often fuel the spirit

Making lion heart s burst and lit

A great motivation for most of us it seems

a step on a cliff for those who dare to dream

I beg to differ from most of the believers

That great dreams only makes heart go fonder

for how many have dreamt a few succeed

and those warm smiles turn into weeps

The standards we set for ourselves to reach

instead of helping us reach become ropes in our heels

The higher we reach, the greater we fall

For some a stumble from which they cannot soar

Dreaming was never bad for us to ignore

Its never a sin to aim for something we adore

we just have to be keen to see clearer

that enjoying simple things makes us weaker

Lets cherish the tiny miracles that life offers

those specks of wonders our eyes could land on

Just like at our dawn even the most ordinary thing we rejoice

See from what a child could see to view a world that sings with glee
