Happy Person Who I Dream

Happy Person Who I Dream

A Poem by Shalini Dinesh

My lids flash fast and I've nothing left to say,
As transparent pearls trickle down its way,
A silent smile curves its path across my cheek,
Untold dreams that make me tremble, and go weak...

I have a long way to go, longer than I think,
All I can say is, I'm stronger and at myself wink!
My nights are curled in my arms tight,
A different person, whom people haven't seen in light.

I stare at my empty hands, as streams of pearls shed,
I hear echoes of past and future unevenly spread,
Louder in my head, not knowing what it means,
I close my lids as my eyes go dry and washed clean.....

I'm stronger, stronger than I know or say,
No tears nor lonely hugs can longer stay,
Sun shines to make my soul gleam,
I am once again the happy person who I dream.

Part happy, part sad, then - part happy! . Are you happier alone or are you rid of sadness in a personal situation? Seems whichever or more, you are relieved to be in a less complex place.. and that is why you're content. ' I am once again the happy person who I dream. Happiness is important.. at least at a time. Regrets can come later, of course. But, hope for your sake, the future is clear of those 'pearls shed'
