Happy smiles spread over her heart shaped face,
Twinkling eyes meet her freckled cheeks,
Dimpled chin trace a merry look,
And here she goes swinging jauntily,
With a halo of sunshine above her head,
And a trace of carefree candor about her,
Surely this must be an angel say people around her.
She smiles and turns towards them as if to say,
Only to realize that she is all by herself,
Buried in her surreal dreams in her make believe world,
She is indeed a dream inside a dream,
Basking from reality so grotesque,
Yet hopeful in her quest,
That life would just be her way if she dared
and held that belief in all earnest.
Twinkling eyes meet her freckled cheeks,
Dimpled chin trace a merry look,
And here she goes swinging jauntily,
With a halo of sunshine above her head,
And a trace of carefree candor about her,
Surely this must be an angel say people around her.
She smiles and turns towards them as if to say,
Only to realize that she is all by herself,
Buried in her surreal dreams in her make believe world,
She is indeed a dream inside a dream,
Basking from reality so grotesque,
Yet hopeful in her quest,
That life would just be her way if she dared
and held that belief in all earnest.
Here’s a cleaned-up version of your poem, with a focus on smoothening the flow while preserving its emotional depth and imagery:
---
**A Dream Inside a Dream**
Happy smiles spread across her heart-shaped face,
Twinkling eyes meet her freckled cheeks,
A dimpled chin traces a merry look,
And off she goes, swinging jauntily,
A halo of sunshine above her head,
A trace of carefree candor about her,
Surely, this must be an angel, say the people around her.
She smiles and turns towards them, as if to say—
Only to realize she is all alone,
Buried in her surreal dreams, in her make-believe world.
She is, indeed, a dream inside a dream,
Basking in a reality so grotesque,
Yet hopeful in her quest,
Believing life would bend to her will—
If only she dared,
And held that belief in all earnest.
