It's me, RenaissanceRomanceRunsRed. Couldn't get back into that particular username, so here I am, starting over.

Dark Dreamer

In the dark night I dream
An endless expanse of my past
Haunting, ghostly, you follow me
I find myself around you always

Don’t you know I’m taken up?
I can never be with you
Leave me apparition, please
Let peace restore my mind

I wake with images in my head
That would shame my true resolve
Oh past, unhook me from your wily line
That I may not be devoured

I see you fishing in the black expanse
Sitting heavily upon the stars
Waiting for my dreams to past
You snatch them, one by one

I thought that we were through with this
The silly games of youth
So leave me, let me go oh dreamer
This is not our story's end

Really pretty. If only songs didn't have to rhyme it would be a hit.

Welcome [back] to pip, LittleBird!  Glad to see some new life here!

This was a very expressive poem.  The past most certainly be hard to let go of, especially when transitioning beyond youth.  Just remember that while your past defines who you were, YOU define who you ARE.  Keep moving forward!

P.S. - If you want access to the old account, email Ron and he'll get you back in.
