Dream
I am in love with a dream
As beautiful as the moon
As enchanting as the starry sky
Whose Midas touch can shower me with gold and diamonds.
Within my reach a dream of a lifetime
I am in love with the dream.
I know my Lord.
You answer the prayers of your devotees.
You will not let go any earnest desire of mine
But
I do not want you to fulfill my dream
I do not want you to clothe it with reality
Least it causes a havoc
It’s tsunami destroying in its path the relationships of a lifetime.
Faith being tossed around in a non-forgiving tornado.
Soaking and drenching me in guilt
There are more important things in life than love.
Integrity is one of them.
I am in love with a dream my lord.
Do not answer my prayers.
