Dream

kinda funny...but...that's just how it is...

You wake up one morning...
scared; with a scream...
just to realize you were in a dream...

the dream had us...
together as always...
living each moment in the special of our ways...

all our times flashed through your eyes...
smiling you blushed at the romantic ties...
we were the best of friends; true...
and somewhere i even loved you too..

feelings; we never really confessed any...
but in our hearts; we had many...

all was warm and hearty...
until struck an awful reality...
everything changed within a flight...
drudged fate and its plight..

the "me" you knew was fading away...
i never really existed so how could i stay...
you saw my image; fainter it grew...
just like a fantasy, with time it flew...

spinning in circles; you look dumbfound...
heartbroken and weak you knelt on the ground...

it was then you felt the urge to say...
confessions of your love...
now all in dismay...

time just flew...
wiping away...
my bare existence with a sway...

you still look around...
for the "me" you knew...
with teary eyes my thoughts they grew...
of just how i used to be...
and all the love you had for ME!!!

but alas! it was all a dream...
we meet; you hug me and with joy you scream...
because I'm still here by your side...
and within silence our feelings still confide!!!

will we ever say it??? do we even have something for each other???
on these thoughts when alone we dwell...
lets see what happens; only time will tell!!!!

"all our times flashed through your eyes...

I love this stanza and this whole poem. To think that you've changed enough to not belong with the person you love anymore.....it's more like a nightmare than a dream. Really awesome piece :)

"time just flew...

How often do we read lines so deep and vivid!
This was really breathtakingly beautiful, very thoughtful and mature.
Imagery at few places really gave a new essence to this piece and few of the metaphors of life made this very strong.
Life is surely what dreams are made up of!

Wow this was really good...i love it...and it is so true...sometimes it seems like a dream and we dont want to wake up...but only time can show us if it is truly a dream or not.
Great Job :)

Wow!! This was amazing. Especially the rhymes (I have a weird liking for rhymes, lol...)
The words just fit in perfectly everywhere. It was a one of those pieces where the romance is unspoken and you put that particular plot in a fantastic way. It was as if we were being juggled to and fro to the parts where you talk about love and where you haven't really revealed it...

"feelings; we never really confessed any...
but in our hearts; we had many..."
These are my fav lines!!

Overall, it was an outstanding write! I loved it!!
Very well written!! Keep writing... ^_^

a great way to describe awaking from a dream of a lover. The words will only be spoken if you are willing to face the fear of uncertainty. It's up to you to decide if it's worse to let it fester inside and never know or let it out and have it not turn out as you had dreamed. Love is a gambling mans game sometimes :)

A very well written poem. So often it's true that only time will tell if a relationship shall blossom or fade. Thank you for sharing. Debileah
