Yesterday <br />For some time <br />I walked <br />Sat and talked <br />As in a dream.... <br />With stars in my eyes, <br />With my heart beating fast <br />In excitement and ecstasy... <br /> <br />Yesterday <br />For some time <br />I thought <br />I would finally get <br />All I had ever dreamed about <br />With stars in my eyes, <br />With my heart beating fast <br />In excitement and ecstasy... <br /> <br />Today <br />I am back <br />in the same place <br />A place where every step poses an obstacle <br />A place where every step seems to be a mile <br />Where an hour of rain <br />swamps us <br />into deep water... <br /> <br />But dreaming <br />I have not stopped... <br />Because dreaming <br />makes me hope <br />And I walk <br />sit and talk <br />With stars in my eyes, <br />With my heart beating fast <br />In excitement and ecstasy...<br /><br />Jasbir Chatterjee<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/stars-in-my-eyes-4/
