I am not imprisoned - Sudha Dixit

I am not imprisoned
I am enclosed in a room
I want to go out,
Feel the breeze,
Absorb the fragrance,
Admire the bloom
But I am confined
How do I gather and collect
All the nature's bounty
And its special effects
Yet I do exactly that
I create a spell,
Simply imagine to be in love
And all with me is well
Half open eyes are
Full of dreams
Mood of my room is romantic
I can see the stars around
Ambiance is so enigmatic
If illusory love has
So much magic
Imagine the
Real love's power
I need not live in
Make believe myth
I must abandon
The ivory tower
I want release from
The mental cage
I want to soar in
Open space
Want to leave
The virtual garden
Want to touch my
Real love's face,
Unshackle myself and
Fly high to my
Dreams to trace
