I still dream-
Of unfulfilled wishes,
Of unaccomplished goals,
So what if the ground beneath
Has softened;
So what if I've drowned till the neck-
I still dream-
My limbs are taut and numb
The mud around me is soft
Yet it does not allow me to move,
To touch, to feel...
Little does it realize-
My heart still beats, full to the brim,
With bustling emotions,
So what if they find an outlet-
Through sour, steaming drops-
I still dream-
And I'll continue,
Because I know, the hand will come
A hand strong enough
To pull me out-
And cleanse me of the dirt
And I'll continue:
Because I know, the day will come
A day of fulfilled wishes,
Of accomplished goals,
A day when,
Beneath shall be a strong ground
So what if the day arrives!
I'll still dream...
...dream bigger!
This comes directly from the heart of a girl, who strives to make it big in life. She has many unachieved dreams waiting to be fulfilled. What is unfortunate is that, she has lost confidence- both in herself and in the people around her. She is thus, lost in solitude. In spite of all odds, however, she does not stop dreaming.
Every single day she feels as if she is sinking into an unknown dark pit. She has been restricted and caged by the forceful ways of social norms. She is supposed to be 'an ideal girl', but people who expect her to be so, do not realize, that she also has a heart, that she also feels. When emotions become too heavy for her to bear, she pours out her heart to herself, through her tears.
Yet, she does not stop dreaming, because dreams are her only strength. Again, its dreams alone, that inspire her to aspire for that day, when she would be understood by someone, she would stand strong, with "fulfilled wishes" and "accomplished goals". Above all, she would be actually happy, without pretending to be so but not satisfied, because, then she would "dream bigger".
