What once was...
you I put trust in,
Now were two strangers,
What once were dreams,

What once was...
My ideal future,
Now is so different,
What once were dreams,

What once was...
My dream house,
Now is more modern,
What once were dreams,

What once was...
Me quiet and reluctant,
Now ready for anything,
What once were dreams.



The world doesn't stop for you, but you can stop for the world.

Dreams sometimes don't measure up to reality, do they? An interesting, thought-provoking poem, Maria.

To love another person is to see the face of God.

May your new dreams become your reality. Nice writing, Moon Dust.

Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats

This is the first of your poems I've had the chance to read, I believe. Very well written. I'll be looking for more by you in the future. BWA.

Your time is here. Take one last look at it, then never come back. This part of your life is already over...
