Sweet dreams or sweating reality !

My eyes get filled with water
and in joy i do flutter

the saline tears turn sweet
as i wait for us to meet

and i dream the happy moments
with eyes wide open and mind so silent

i hear the breath flowing out
i feel the heart hurriedly beat,

and i see me in your deep eyes
glowing with the reflection of my smile

i could not utter a word at all
for only the silence could speak it all

but if all joy was in being silent on seeing you
then why like a mad i talked to my self aloud thinking of you

May be i could not believe the reality
May be i didn’t want to know the reality

And we have to part ,that is for sure
and let me be silent and dream for ever.

As dreams have become the cheapest commodity
Though a sign of life, it still remains a distant reality

Hey dear, this is really really good. Some poeple may take it as an ordinary stuff, but boss, you have really put words, rhyming and simple thoughts in a flow.

Cheers, you deserve stars. To tell you, its not easy to write siimple thoughts in beautiful 2 line rhyming stanzas.

Again, I liked it, I dont know about the world. After a long time, I have really liked a poem.

it’s a nice poem….. who’ve conveyed your thoughts well… it flows nicely too… just a suggestion the 7th para might sound better if it was

“but if all joy was in being silent on seeing you
then why like mad i talked to myself aloud thinking of you..”
