A Dream So Often..

Why I see a dream so often,
Where you bleed to death, reaching out to your own coffin.

You smile and say, things are gonna be fine
You say the world will be a better place for you,
As well as of mine.

Do I only smell or is that you are really around,
Why in the pin-drop silence, I hear a familiar sound?

Do I only feel that, a beautiful place it is, where now you live
Is that you are calling me somewhere not known to all,
Or a random sprawl..
Which my mind nurtures and blindly believes..

As I also see a dream often, where you are hale and hearty
From nowhere, I may join you soon for a reunion party.

As I wonder where exactly you are, few planets or kilometers far
Is that you live no where and inside me is where you are??

Are you really around or want to be..
Why do I hear a familiar sound from deep inside me??

Why do I see you only when dew changes to dawn
May be coz it was your favorite time to start the day in our lawn??

As I see this dreams so often, where you smile as you bleed
I wonder what's left behind and what is that you need??

As I see these dreams so often, I am keen
Do I chase you down and join??
Is your world really peaceful and fine??
OR.. If I Should believe what I have seen??

As I hear you so often in my town,
Are we gonna meet soon for a long-lasting rebound??????
