'twas a dream of love so true
a kind of fire for me and you
to keep burning all through the winters night
and never deminish after a fight

Though sadness does at times prevail
and rose red heart do turn slightly pale
remember that once was true
this feeling from me, transplanted in you

Shall not bow my head in shame
I conclude that most are the same
I hoped and wished for a (wo)man made
trust, but as with roulette its win or bust

Yes the time will ticker on
and yes the memories will have gone
but questions remain, will I ever be the same
the darkness where once it shone

Rich, I'm really feeling this poem! I especially liked the second stanza, it really stood out to me. The title drew me in : ) Nicely penned
You should post more often, I like your work.

I like this a lot, it says a ton to me...

My perception of truth will somehow never quite be the same..and so I write.
