![]() Yesterday Night I Sold My DreamsA Poem by NITISHYesterday night, I sold my dreams and retained my memory back. Yeah, you are right, am not one of those fortunates who can have both. Thus had to sell one to buy another. But I must say, The exchange was right, and the exchange was fair tight. And it all began with a bad luck bet which I lose to God after all. My memory was all the treasure on which I was cashing upon. So He had given me three options to buy my memory back. My Dreams, My Heart and My Life to sell some parts of these and have those back. First of all I chose, my dreams. Oh that was an easy one. You could have just picked up that even if you are blind by your conscience. Since having a dream without memories is just like a tree without roots. So I bartered it first. And yes, to my surprise I got all but some parts of my memory back. Buyers said, those remaining were too precious to buy with my dreams. Now I had other two options to sell, my heart and my breath. Selling dreams was an easy one. But how to choose next? Can you suggest? If you have ever fallen in love, you won't sell your heart to anyone right away. Or, do you?? I guess, you won't. Even if in case you sell, what would you buy then? Some memory of a stranger, whom you don't recognize at all. Certainly not a better trade. Now let's see what options does this breath of mine hold. They say, memory resides with you even after your death. That was the single hope on which I dwelt. Certainly I had two options then, selling my breath and to hold memory of my beloved back. Or to sell my heart and don't recognize her at all. What do you say? What do you suggest? What should I have chosen? Should I have sold my breath or should I have sold my heart? Be judge to me now and decide What I have done is wrong or right. I have chosen to exchange my breath for inhaling her memory in next birth of mine. Now you say, what you could have done? I guess, the same footprints you too would have left, had you been in my place? I guess, I am right. Ain't I ???
