Just written watching a sad movie, not really me

She had so many brilliant thoughts
and plans to spin her web of gold.
Yet all her efforts came to naught
when no one cared for tales of old.

She dreamt in pictures made of love,
in sketches formed of pink vermeil.
Her stories rose from stars above
and as she wrote, her heart would heal.

But came the day she learned the truth,
that it was later than she knew.
Her hopes were fading with her youth
and time-a bird that swiftly flew.

Now she sees there is no morrow
just an ending filled with sorrow.

Dream as if you'll live forever; Live as if you'll die today.
— James Dean

WOW.......must have been some movie. Sharp edge of despair in this piece my friend. Glad to see you penning though. I have not been around that much lately but I do know that I have missed your works. Wonderful write and am glad to know that it is not about you.

everytime I close my eyes, I see your face, I taste you on my lips...
