The sky cries
one lonely tear,
one lonely tear
for one lonely fear,
one lonely fear
of dying dreams
never was part
of my true means.

The sky cries
one lonely tear,
gave it to me
and I kept it near,
reminds me that
dreams die on
not in this world
but in hearts of stone.

The sky cries
one lonely tear,
one lonely tear
for a heart so clear,
so untouched
by the human hate,
it won't understand
when it meets it's fate.

The sky cries
one lonely fear
for dreams killed
by one lonely fear.

Planning big can be a gamble...I have already rolled the dice!

I really enjoyed this poem a great deal, no word of a lie.  It sounded and read through just wonderfully, the way the lines were organized was top-notch.  This is a true masterpiece that I am adding to my personal library.
It's wonderful to see you posting again.     Hope you stick around.

This was very well done. I liked the poem very much. It rang like a song, but sounded great!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

This is fantastic! It read more like a chant to me than a poem and that sure as hell gets two big thumbs up.  

I really, really, really like it. This is heading into the library.
