TRAIL OF A BROKEN DREAM
Trail of Broken Dreams
I looked around
I had been here before
Early morning hours
Wintery white veil.
Sparkling frost
Everything faded pale
Levitating fog,
just above the ground.
Winding cedar path,
curved ahead and around.
Nothing but trees
as far as I could see.
I stood there gazing
remembering everything.
A swift chill,
flowed right through me.
I turned to avoid its suprise
I seen him standing before me.
I seen his passionate eyes
Reunited with a part of myself
I had longed for for sometime
We walked holding hands
Leaving the chill behind
embracing beauty on the land.
Saturating the feeling
Appreciating all we can
The glowing grey sky
mirrored the pond near by.
Its essence radiated the surface
Ripples from the dragonfly
We moved slowly,
expressing without words.
Staring frequently
into each other's eyes.
Everything felt...
all needed to be said,
No spoken words
Feelings so in depth
I felt us both express
love and much regret.
Mistakes that can take,
you heart forever breaks.
He and I reliving,
no chance of another day
Looking past the eyes.
with the reality kept in mind.
Soon the time would come,
that we would say goodbye.
My heart ripped at the seam.
For this was only a dream.
I was sorrow stricken,
grateful all in one.
We new the things we missed.
Thing's we could have done.
Both engulfed in a romance,
hindered by addiction.
Careless and ungrateful,
pain and exchanged infliction.
Each day suppressed
Instead of making the best
Blinded by our actions
Confusing satisfactions
Catastrophic ending
Health was decending
In a moment he was gone.
Never to return,
and everything is wrong.
Together he and I,
the trail and grayish sky.
In a dream, just a dream.
I cherish every time.
