An ode to my dreams!

Grieving still,
my soul,
torn apart!
Lies unheard
the silent scream
of my heart!

Mauled under
the stampede
of my cruel destiny…
My desires disfigured
and the debris
left behind!

I can’t recognize …
all lie crushed,
under destiny’s wrath!
Worn-out and battered,
amorphous
they bleed to death!

I stand perplexed
with tears in my eyes
and infinite pain!
Just with a query….
Why did this happen?
Why do they lie slain??!
