Broken Dreams

Broken dreams sipped through seams on minds blanket
like the water escaping down wall-sides
ended in forming puddles drying dying out
written confessions from the other-side

Like the traveller flocking from city to city
naming every place his own
found a New World inside a wishing well
no coin touched the bottom but my own

Thrown from dreams to reality
like piggy in the middle never been caught half-way
into your greeting arms of friendship
laughter became our nervous glitch

Warmth leathered skin in cloth made by sun
ruined by the wetness of waters slap
coolness grained into the mixture
enhanced by your loving lips against my spoken no’s

Through the treaded paths we walked
on past our frozen feelings awaiting release
we defeated and brought the ever-lasting calm

Held in our love as one body fled away
didn’t want to leave you alone as we discovered each other
never let go of me keep me forever inside
for I wait in the place you know you’ll find me

The place no living person can seem to tread or find…

Interesting write Lee. Enjoyed! Chris

I love you
With a thousand hearts."
