The Comings and Goings of a Dreamer

The Comings and Goings of a Dreamer

A Poem by Britiney Harper
"

..another thing from for 4yrs ago..

"

It's all so very difficult
I wanted to stay
Because of everybody
Yet at the same time
I want to live because of everything
I wanted him
Because i wanted to win
Now i have nothing
so what did i do but play this awful part
Being the attention getting girl
Never once did i really stop to think
Thought my heart said i had fallen
Guess i was wrong
If i really loved him
Then there wouldn't still be the others
He fell for me and all the dream ended

So where do i go from here?
I can dream all the big dreams
Win all the hearts to break
But what do i have?
Only the sad and lonely
I have nothing but a dream
So where do i go from here?

Friendless and alone
I am the strong one
And independent too
Lost in a dream one
reaching for a dream Instead of standing on the sidelines
That one
The seasons have changed and the flowers bloom w/ new life
And i'm still here
With nothing ahead but fog and tears
So where do i go from here?

The one w/ all the answers now has nothing to say
And when he smiles and whispers
I know it's all wrong
I have to let go
Even if fate doesn't say so
All i ever had was a dream
And somewhere along the way
The dream became him and me
So where do i go from here?

I can relate to this some. A piece like this is another one that will open up eyes of those that havent seen portions of the world they never really bother to look at. Great job!

This was sad but also happy because of the ending.This depicts a side of dreamer that I don't think is often talked about. Very creative!
