Dreams

Faintly scented world,
strewn with dreams,
dreams one-of-a-kind,
so subtle,so indulging,
so cosy, so wild.

Nobody can comprehend,
and I cannot explain,
how they touch me now and then,
how everything lights up from within,
my room walls, the faded curtains,
the dressing table dusty,
how everything becomes glitters.

What colours blind my eyes,
what lilt stirs my words,
I gaze at things unknown,
with sunken eyes and smile!
