Sharing Dreams


A wise man once said:

 
Say what you want to say.

 
So I tried speaking.

 
Public speaking.

 
I f-f-fainted on the s-spot.

 
Needless to say,

 
I tried singing

 
And lalala shattered glass.

 
I thought about those without voices

 
And considered myself lucky.

 

 
I settled for the written

 
While pursuing the art

 
Of calligraphy, because

 
Everyone has the wings

 
To discover the beauty

 
Of reading in between the lines,

 
Whether it be a page

 
Of lines and curves or even

 
Dots.

 
Writing is like Inception; it

 
Is living in a dream

 
Shared with other people.
