Millions of dreams in her eyes
Vanish like a whirlwind romance
Clinging onto the hopes
Feels like being attached on a string
That’s so loosely bound it’s meant to break
Her heart which used to make the sounds of thunder and elephants thumping
Quieten to the extent where it can barely be heard
The aspirations which ignited her passions
Were long forgotten when life took its toll
And reality surfaced
Now there she sits
Quiet and polite
With a mind so blank and eyes out of shine
Doing what people find fit
Carrying the bland mundane life
Although there are nights
Nights when she gets up and thinks
What if
What if she chose herself
The ‘ what if’s ‘ which can never be lived
