Here, Now, Forever

0 posted 2002-09-18 11:25 PM



The dreams come and go, amidst the town buildings,
I walk down a street among faces I dont know,
In a familiar city that doesn't exist,
I knew my way around.
These people were my friends, knew them I did.
Yet when I wake up I realize we never met.
I swim in water, yet I remain dry,
We played in the dark warehouse pool,
Surfing upon the intangible,
I hear my old songs, for they'll never die,
I tumble through this reverie without asking why,
Inside a dark warehouse, this pool of dry water rests.

Life is a lonely journey to, and a heavy-hearted departure from three words. I LOVE YOU

This is deep.  Your poem has very mystical ambience.

Mystical ambiance? I can't beat that, so I'll settle for telling you it was a wonderful poem.

loner, sparkles, kielo, thank you for reading. this was actually a dream I had years ago... one of those vividly remembered ones that leaves an impact of wonder

I have sent you nothing but angels, and I have placed nothing but miracles before you.

this reads like a dream would be experienced. I think you've done a wonderful job with it. I can never capture them like this. I love this.

Sometimes we dream of things and can never quite capture them the way we saw them, but you have done an absolute wonderful job with this!

If I have touched one heart through my words, then I have acheived my dream...

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.
