Dreams!!! let go!!
Farhan Khan

Farhan says, "I come from the city of Lakes and Hills, Bhopal, where I stay with my parents. Having just completed my MBA Finance, I plan to super-specialise in the field of International Banking. An avid painter, I am very fond of cooking as well and love to unwind with the Ghazals of Faiz. I started writing poetry nearly 6 yrs back. How it all happened., even I wonder! I love kids and can be one at times myself. Still have my teddy bear and monkey with me! My two nephews 4 and 1 form the greatest source of happiness for me. I love to take life as it comes and live each day to the fullest!"click here to read Farhan Khan's other poems on SAWF.

I had them in all shades
Soft greens and earthy hues.
Ochre and Orange ones to choose!!
Some with a hint of pink, passionate reds and dreamy blues!!
Brilliant golden and silver ones too!!!

They were minelaced with tender thoughts.and detailed with fire!!!
Dreams!!! Dreams which made me crave for life then!!
Dreams!!! Dreams which make me seek death today!!!
Dreams of a lifetime of togetherness!!
Dreams, of a lifetime of love!!!
Dreams, eternal Dreams, so very real!!

Dreams bleeding, Dreams dead!!
Dreams disguised dreams fake!!
Dreams cruel and Dreams sad!!!

Go away!! For I don’t need u today!!
You were never mine!! Always a dream always a mirage!!
Leave me for I want to live!!
Live without a dream .!!!
