Hopelessness of the hopelessness Last and sad light of a soul in gloom Life is a vain dream that life takes Full of gentle sorrowful afflictions More beautiful is the Brilliancy of the snowing sky Than the strong magnificence of success More human is the Wish the feeds us Than the children's clear laughs I , follow my lead, misunderstood Without belief nor love, like a lost man In the cruel certainty that nothing matters Sometimes a bird comes singing But he passes by, and I follow my way In the never-ending sadness of a dead soul "Only in the dreams , is that man can truly be free It was always thus and always thus will be" Prof. Keating Dead Poets Society |

I loved that movie, and now to your poem...wow... I really loved this, fantastic images that were beautiful even if the mood was tragic. great poem. Life is a vain dream that life takes Full of gentle sorrowful afflictions Than the strong magnificence of success More human is the Wish the feeds us ,like a lost man In the cruel certainty that nothing matters Sometimes a bird comes singing But he passes by, and I follow my way In the never-ending sadness of a dead soul |

A very dark poem, and so well-written and expressed! I do hope that now you have found happiness in your life. "Sometimes a bird comes singing but he passes by, and I follow my way in a never-ending sadness of a dead soul" Wow! What a line, what an ending, I relate to such an emptiness. Take care, Melissa Honeybee |

Well this is certainly an interesting way to look at things ... when quality of life dips to where nothing matters I prefer to think of it as a lost soul ( still has a ray of hope ) exceptionally well done Rex |
