Illusion of Reality Hidden in dream I sought the illusion of reality the heat of an impassioned heart the voice of angels to sing the words . . . the words that swell my soul, the words I’ve yet to give away, the words I now must say, for thou has given life to dreams, thou has given wings to this heart inside trying to loose itself and fly to thee. I saw a flower and a butterfly, or thought I did till you smiled at me, then all I saw was you, and the words flew from inside of me. . . I lay this rose where once we stood, where the words I filled so full of life met their demise with but one from you, where now I stand hidden in dream seeking the illusion. . . the illusion of reality. w.james beard, jr. © january 2003 [This message has been edited by jwesley (04-07-2003 08:37 PM).] |

your title set me thinking..interesting how it can seem an oxymoron at times where the words I filled so full of life met their demise with but one from you, ~i enjoyed these lines especially. welcome back and with a soft write, no less p/s: panne said she would contact me if her computer system was fixed...she hasn't yet so i guess she's not back online.. |
