Dreamer

Childhood dreams are cheerful
But not all can be achieved to full.

Some people, my parents especially,
Say and blame me why I'm like this

They say I'm dead I'm boring
But they never ask me why?

I was always a dreamer

My inner artist would make colourful paintings
But i was forced to kill passion, and copy another's

Now they blame me why i kept my brush dry.

My inner friend wanted to sooth friends' pain,
Kept wishing to talk to someone when himself in vain.

Now they say i never wanted friends.

My inner child loved to make everyone happy
But it didn't knew no one would do that to me

Now they say why are you so gloomy?

My inner stargazer wished to explore the stars
But realised it requires books without colours

Now they say I'm afraid of the light.

My inner singer wished to spread joy of music
But realised everything is controlled by nepotism

Now they say I'm embarassed.

My inner bookworm would walk through stories
But it died being crushed by heavy textbooks

Now they say I'm not interested in stories.

My inner son wanted to feel loved by his mother
All he got was taunts, abuses and to he compared with other

Now they call me a bad son.

My inner brother wanted to love and protect my sister
But being a single child, how can i get to hug her?

Now they say only daughters are caring.

My inner soldier wished to martyr himself for all
But bent knees kept me from climbing the wall

Now they say I'm weak.

My inner teacher wanted to spread wisdom
But didn't knew the world has no place for anything other than money and power

Now they ask why I don't speak.

My inner lover wished to live a happy life with her
But how to live when she's not gonna be ever here

Now they tell me to be happy.

My inner romantic peacefully wrote poems to her
But who knew all she wanted was lust and beauty

Now they say i don't have feelings.

I dreamt of building a dynasty with you, a world within our love, but i didn't knew, they would start a war against us, and we we're fighting like you and me not us.

Now they say I'm fallen.
