I wish I were a dream
An epiphany of a mystery,
Surreal, as it may be
For the protagonist, I would be.
I wish I were the time,
A companion in might
A reminder in sight
Always moving, ahead.
I wish I were the spring,
Reminiscing the past mistakes
Reviving the lost phases,
Humbling new, better beginnings
I wish I were a heartbeat,
A rhythm in sync
Drowning in the elusive harmony
Of togetherness and love
I wish I were the horizon,
Endless and mythical
Plentiful, yet much to learn
Even more to explore
I wish I were the sky
With an endless dream and countless stars
An inspiration of a lifetime,
And a destiny for a few
I wish I were the ocean,
Hiding the treasures
Beneath the bed of mysteries
An enigma… to be explored.

This post is written for BlogChatter prompt of the week: I Wish I were
P.S. I am late, a week late in posting. But I have/ had to, mostly because …umm I just had to. You ask why I was late? Actually, I had something else in mind to write for this prompt, which seemed too harsh, or too soon for people to know. Also, if you have noticed, I have written about a couple too many things I wish to be, which just means that I am very uncertain of what I want. No surprises there! What? Did you say something?

It’s okay to want to be 10 different things. I suffer or rather am gifted with that too.I have one question why are you the Shaded shadow?Really intriguing.
About being time .That’s too much power.You sure ypu can handle it.
Wow Ajay! This was such a nice poem. I loved you wished you could be simple, ordinary things but the ones that make a lot of difference. Enjoyed reading it.

Waise, is my post over ?
Beautiful poem and didn’t know that you write poems too. Agree with Reema. You should write more poems.
Poems means this sort of writeups, and not that good, but I try.
I try to. But then again I give this age old dicease called writers/bloggers block!
I wish i were a bird
To fly unbound
Dreams in wings
Eye the horizon
Awesomely penned 🙂

I wish I were the person who lives life as I want to, I wish I were the person who wants to be everything and nothing at times! I loved how you compared what you wish you were with nature, so much to learn.
Why, thank you. 🙂
