Another long and sleepless night,
As hours and memories drift by.
Slowly and clearly, until dawns light.
Then the new day's sun lights the sky.

Although the day be brand new,
And tomorrow is forever gone,
A young love's dream remains true,
Although it stands alone.

That dream that's left to stand,
After the storms have passed,
May not unravel as planned,
But contain the strength to last.

Dreams grow, Dreams change.
Dreams live, Dreams die,
As our life Destiny does arrange.
Some tears of joy, Some of pain we cry.

Sleepless nights and endless days.
Our lives go on and on.
Did our dreams rot and decay?
Or only become a new seed sown?

Confusion, uncertainty does rob me,
Of time that could be better spent,
In returning the love that is the key
To a dream that is heaven sent.

To be able to lay to rest,
Lost years and unfulfilled needs,
Might I then be at my best,
So love given freely I will heed?

How? Why? When? I continue to ask.
No solution or clarity I can see.
Will I accompolish this simple task?
Or does this lock even have a key?

Most days I muddle through.
Some days seem quite nice,
Embedded pain runs rampant on cue.
Will I ever pay life's price?

Have I grown dull and weak?
No longer the will to fight?
Not seeing the bright, only the bleak?
Seeing the wrong and never the right.

I wish I could find my way,
To my heart's greatest desire.
Has it gone with the passing day?
Or just waiting for me but to inquire?

It is not uncertain that you are heartily welcomed to Passions! I hope you find the answers...I have found it takes time for us to hear them all, but they do, indeed, come with time!

Please, check your E-mail for a Special Greeting!

Welcome to Passions. I find sometimes that wrestling with problems is not always the answer. Let go and let God is a better plan. Joyce

Thank you all for your comments. It helps me to know that a poem of mine made someone feel something. By the way, I found quite a few of the answers since I wrote this piece.
