✍ Dreams ✍

 

Sometimes frightened me,

Sometimes tried threatening

 

Sometimes crushed me,

Sometimes tried pressing…

 

Sometimes battered me,

Sometimes tried breaking

 

Sometimes abrased me,

Sometimes tried twisting

 

Circumstances tried everything possible

But in vain…

 

Grouchingly exhausted

They started panting…

 

Knoweth not what my dreams are made of

They never seem to die..!
