I saw a dream and I want to live it.... <br />To sing my own song <br />To piroutte to my own dance <br />To speak out when I see a wrong <br />For years I moved in a trance <br />And saw from others eyes <br />My thoughts were not my own <br />Though I proudly thought they were <br />My mind was just filled with stones <br />Thrown from the world <br />Sagging from the weight <br />And I just moved <br />Like a puppet <br /> <br />One day I saw a dream <br />It was sunny and everything gleamed <br />I was flying...free like a bird <br />My being was light and I just wanted to sing <br />Mind having been emptied, free of all strings <br />I had shed my old skin and formed new wings <br />To fly high.high...soaring up in the sky <br />Seeing with fresh new eyes <br />My soul had found a new voice <br />Singing its own tune <br />Dancing in my own dunes <br />And now I want to live my dreams <br />No one can stop me, I am my own queen<br /><br />Renu Rakheja a.k.a Tranquil Ocean<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/g-1-biographical-dare-to-dream/
