To smelt a poem of gold
From the lips of a silver tongue
Sell it to buy your heart
And together watch fate unfold

I sit and watch the world go on by
I watch the world turn
Watch the world turn
And my soul grows forever old

My smile forever young
I'm quite in love with this day
And your smile is a ray of sunshine
When my days are cloudy

I wear my scars proudly
I've found a new meaning of life
And why shouldn't I
When life is reborn every day

Going to write a poem
A story
A novel and a play
Gonna write you a movie
A song
And this is what its gonna say

I'mma love you, always
Forever true and forever you
Gonna love you,
Yes me,
Or,
Have our love born forever new

And,
Whilst I dance to the magic and the tune of my own,
I realize I am more then simply alone,
I walk a fine line between fantasy and realism
I'm pretty sure this is my fault
Like a page lost in the wind
It'll come again.

"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." Oscar Wilde

This was a true joy to read!

It does seem like 2 separate poems, though. the last stanza seems so different from the rest, like you curbed your fantasy. Why not let the fantasy fly by itself?

Because this poem like a few of my others tells about how my dreams/fantasies tend to rudely end.
