Once I Had a Dream.

Once i had a dream,
to fly across the ocean,
to discover the world,
and find the treasures in the seven seas



I wanted to the see the time passing
in London's watch
and study freedom from the respectful lady,
who is standing in New York.


I wanted to exercise
on China's wall.
i wanted to smell love in Paris
and learn wisdom from Ghandi.


Now i feel depressed
when i see people dying
and bombs flying.
when no one can fulfill his dream
or do his quest.


They are saying ...
the world is running out of fuel,
and we have green house effect,
the sea level is rising.
of course to end this mess .


We throw the food in the ocean
to rise prices
and children are dying
in this economic crisis


I say ...
the world is running out of love
and our tanks are full of pain
every day we wear our sham
and forget about the honor
we should gain.


If u want to be a doctor watch out,
HIV is there.
If u want to be a pilot watch out,
the sky is Grey .
If u want to a be a police man also watch out
cops killer is there.



God created us for building
constructing ,planting the seeds of love
and collects the fruits of joy.


I am on my knees asking for forgiveness
wishing for a better world,
asking god to restart life
to give us another chance
may be we could catch the sun rise,
........before we fail in our exam.

    its awesome that u have got my msg in the poem .
    yea man we are hunted and the worst thing that we dont know that till the hit our end of the road .

  • In life, we are hunters, and then again we are the hunted. I love how you expressed this in these words:
    "If u want to be a doctor watch out,
    HIV is there.
    If u want to be a pilot watch out,
    the sky is Grey .
    If u want to a be a police man also watch out
    cops killer is there."

    We often live our lives inh a bubble and don't think of the reality that exists beyond our comfortable boundaries. Words can't express my gratitude in you sharing this with us.

    This gave me chills. What you say is so true and powerful. It brought me near tears to help me realize that this world truly is lost.
    "I am on my knees asking for forgiveness
    wishing for a better world,
    asking god to restart life
    to give us another chance
    may be we could catch the sun rise,
    ........before we fail in our exam."
    WOW! That is amazing. A second chance to prove ourselves worthy and to change the downward course of life. This was beautifully written. . Great job!

    I love this, it brought tears to my eyes and shivers down my spine. So sad everything you said is true
    but you said it beautifully in a very creative manner.
