The Closeted Dreams
She looks outside her
window. The intoxicating smell of the freshly brewed coffee, endless monsoon
rain and that melancholy weather yet the blissful state of the mind lets her
dream again. She is happy yet sadness hovers around her like a crown that has lost
its charm years ago. The feeling of not being able to do something rips her
apart day and night. It is not about jealousy or depression or mere fragmented
ideas. It is about who she is and what she thinks she can offer. It is also not
about running away from the responsibilities. She is desperately searching for
an answer or at least an opening so that she can follow that path and try
something different, something new, something that she always dreamt but never
got the courage to explore.
She is smiling now for
she knows that she is crazy. Crazy and wild, sweet and bold, funny and lazy, compassionate
and creative but above all, a dreamer. Her dreams are manifestation of what she
sees happening day and night, of what she wants to do apart from what she is
doing right now, of what she wishes every human being should do to bring peace
and happiness around. Her dreams are so creative and philosophical, so thought
provoking and genuine. It is the virgin snow untouched by any climbers till
date.
She is frowning now for
she knows that she cannot share her dreams with anyone. The world revolves
around you, me, he, she, they and least one of them gets offended, she will be
shattered. She wants to be free and share her dreams for she knows that they
are so true and beautiful. On the contrary, she also knows that it is so
radical that this human-made society will judge her and announce a sentence
which will have immense effect on the purified soul. Yes, she is free to dream
but she is not free to share!!! The reality pierces through that beating heart.
Why does she have to worry about the consequences?
She is blushing now. Oh
how she loves her dreams. She can laugh and be naughty, she can cry and be sad,
she can dare and be bare, she can love and kill for no one can stop her from
dreaming the unthinkable. Her dreams are free from the worry of financial
backing, her dreams are free from criticism for those are hers and she knows
that she can wander around as there are no boundaries. Just as she enters into
the euphoric state of mind, she realises that the monsoon rain has transcended
into her dreams yet again and a rainbow sheds an intoxicating maze to unravel her
closeted dreams.
...and in this intoxicating maze of the rainbow as the closeted dreams are unraveled, at the dawn of the universe the first dream that seem to have appeared in the real is you yourself Labanya! The writer is the dream to this reader's eyes. Beautiful piece, very pure and virgin, daring... And that's what's freedom is all about isn't it... Daring to dream the unthinkable!!
