Dreams

Here is the second part of the trilogy; Dreams: love lost. I believe in dreams. I believe that dreams can tell me things I need to know or what my soul, mind, and heart have been trying to tell me. They talk to me in dreams because while awake I don't listen. Sometimes I don't want to listen.

I didn't listen to what i was trying to tell myself because i didn't want to hear it. I loved him like i thought i would love no other. The realization, after this dream, that we would not be together tore my very soul. A little while after we were no more. I didn't think that I would pull through my heart was so broken. My friends, whom I love dearly, pulled me through this time. Even though we love someone, love them deeply, doesn't always mean it will work out. On the chance that a love that is meant to be comes along cherish each moment and don't let them slip away.

Cool eve breeze greeted a pounding heart
Awaken from a trembling dream
Fragments of memories soon depart
As warm covers slip to the floor

Night's song sweetly whispers and guides
Its haunting melody in footfalls wake
Pausing as silent feet no more strides
Standing to gaze upon a fated love

Unbidden Moon's mystical beams shine
Many a sparkle it does reveal
Angel's tears fall happily now undenied
For a love that is and should be

Silent stars dance within Heaven's sight
Soul's Heart stirs amidst the joyous sway
Remembrance of love's passion plight
Reaching, searching for adoration's form

Heart beckons Heart along night's wispy lane
Gently drawing back to Lover's embrace
Dispelling dark shadow's loathed disdain
Soul yearns for hearts deeply caring arms

Dawn's watchman caution chimes the coming glow
Soul reaches for Love to safely enfold
Ghostly mists gather about snow angel, slow
Hand slides through, Love's sadness shown

Cool morn breeze greeted her pounding heart
Awaken from this trembling dream
Fragments of memories won't soon depart
As warm covers envelop tormented form

Day's song sweetly whispers unable to comfort
Melody delights swirls amidst furrowed sheets
Pausing as heartbreaking sorrow steps forth
Fated love no longer in Love's embrace

Golden Sun's radiant beam glimmering shines
Rain released from a cloudless sky
Angel's anguish swiftly trails deepening lines
For a love that is but cannot ever be

Playful leaves waltz before Heaven's gaze
Her Soul's Heart far beyond the sway
Passion's wrenching memories swiftly frays
Adoration's form still never to caress

Heart beckons Heart along times expanse
Mourning for her Lover's embrace
Dark shadows swallowing hopes last chance
Deep within her suffering soul

Dawn's watchman departs with a mocking grin
At her heartrending understanding
Ghostly mists of reminiscences descent begins
Anguished dream reveals they cannot be

Heaven

About 4 years ago i entered the dating world. It is a very new, scary, and exciting place to me. I had to come out of my shy, introverted shell not an easy thing for me to do and many will confirm my statement. A person gives their all, all their heart, all their soul, all emotions hoping and trusting it will be given back. If it ever ends (never going into a relationship thinking it will) nothing in this world can describe the sadness that can envelope the being. The next 3 poems are part of a trilogy of sorts about my first relationship.

The first in the trilogy is Heaven; declaration of a forever and always love. I was at my brother's house puppysitting. On their fridge were magnets that had different words on them "love", "I" etc. I sat there in front of the fridge for half an hour placing words together. From that I started this poem which is the first poem I ever wrote for someone I loved very much. Which also got me started on my love of writing poems

Dreaming we joyously danced in Heaven together

Show me again Heaven my darling

On Candlelight dreams we have tonight

All loving feelings ever light up true

Always and forever my hear is yours
