Dreams

Sitting in office
doing the work,
I suddenly hooked
on to a discussion.

I got transported
to those golden days
when the mind was ignited
and I was full of dreams.

Those ideas,those sparking
days, have they gone?
Have they died?
Where those dreams or just fantasies?

I like to believe that
they were not.

The day will come
when I will see those
dreams closer to me,
and then I will merge with them, for good.

For now, I need to
hold on to my
decision, and carry on
with this endeavour.

For fruits of this,
however delayed it might be,
is bound to be sweet,
for which I shall wait.
