Empty Dreams Poem by Sanjukta Nag

Empty Dreams

Rating: 4.6


Days are passing by
So are we,
Apart from each other
Like the sky and the river
Flowing separately ripping the heart of eternity
Yet so together in affinity
Sleeping with empty dreams.

If I were a waterfall
I would have fallen in love
With your heart of stone
And you would break me from drop to droplets
Or I would have made you unstone.

If I were a rainbow
You must have written on me
Seven colours of poetry,
Though life doesn’t seem to rhyme
But I would have listened to you all night long
If you were a wind chime.

Since life isn’t a role playing game
You and me running parallel
Carrying different aims.
There’s no possibility to embrace each other
As life is not what it seems,
At the end of each day
We are still sleeping with empty dreams.

If I were a waterfall I would have fallen in love With your heart of stone Being unable to erode the hard stone, creator is ever enemy.

if i were a water drop and a waterfall- falling down on stones. if i were a rainbow, colours and intense desire if i were a wind chime... at the end of the day we are still sleeping with empty dreams. all wishes, unfilled or fulfilled.. that is life i thought after reading your poem. very expressive of your inner thoughts and desires.
