I began to dream

by Prateek Segal

I began to live,
I chose to live away n strong
I meant not to harm
I lived in heaven…
Then one day i dreamed…
of the world I could have been.
and lost in the joys of an imagination
and I began to die
the choice burnt me inside,
and I went to harm
as I was about to hit,
I saw the heaven..
there it was in the eyes of other
and the smile it had,
the happiness of reality
the life of living.
now I try to live again.
but I’ll never be same again,
I’ll not be strong, I’ll not be chosen
I can just tell you never dream beyond your sleep…..

I really dug those last nine lines. They had some great momentum in them. Nice write.
