across the land of dreams. In your heart, I'd always be.

~*~ I am what you make of me ~*~


I am what you make of me
The love of your dreams
The hatred of your nightmares
The wonder in your questioning eyes
The submission in your weak moments
An entire prospect of living
when you look deep down

I’m the answer…
to your prayers

The truth …
in the midst of your lies

The goal…
behind your quest

The true legend…
in your mythology

The Holy grail
for which Nations fought
And Arthur roamed in search

I am your golden city Camelot,
Your queen Guinevere
loved and misunderstood,
adored and mistrusted
betrayed
and forever held
in the perfect Arthurian legend.

Yes….
I am what you make of me….
But …
More…..
I am
What I make of myself

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thank you
* An old poem…I don’t know why I felt like posting it today

Wow, My Melody...  then indeed, you are many exquisite things.  But the ones that should truly count are those based upon your last two lines.  Wonderful thoughts and a beautiful picture too.

Melody, this is so good, I think it says everything, everything we want to be to someone, and everything we have to be for ourselves.

This is the best poem I have read all day.
Often I hear people mumble that life sucks...and you have just reminded me that it can be improved once happy with thyself.
Excellent work, in the library this one goes

love,

This whole poem is wonderful but these last lines are what hit me the hardest. BRAVO!!!!!

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.
