Cloud Nine

After years of affection that we’ve supplied, is there no more passion left burning inside? We barely speak or even steal a glance; we turn away from each other as if in a trance.

 

The days grow longer and the nights seem colder, the fire has died into a betraying smolder. All the laughter has turned into pain, all the smiles washed away with the rain.

 

What we were and what we are now, are two different people ignorant to the word disavow. Seasons change and so must we, because all we do now is just disagree.

 

So this is it, there is no more, time to let our lonely hearts soar. You with yours and me with mine, searching for that perfect cloud nine.

Nicely penned DreamWeaver...Everyone wants that cloud nine...its hard to find though,
and if you do a lifetime of history stands in the way...enjoyed your words.SyberRose.

[Dream Weaver]

Thank you Rose can I call you Rose? Cloud nine isn't a bad place to be and if ever you find it, hold on tight. Thanks once again...

[SyberRose]

You sure can.

It is sad that so many people stop trying once they get together... no one tries to be romantic or go out of there way to show their love because they get complacent... that is like not watering your prize roses cause thwey are in full bloom.

[Dream Weaver]

Thank you my friend, your point is well taken...and I absolutely agree!

[Veronica Chandler]

Stirring look at the quenched fires of love reduced to dying embers; I can hear the deafening silence in those walls. More fodder for poetry's fire, but the pain still lives and breathes within our spirits. It never goes away, we just learn how to live with it. We can only try to "Write Our Way Outta The Blue"

[Dream Weaver]

Thank you Veronica, I couldn't agree with you more! I hope all went well last night, drop me a line and lemme know. :)

Any wind I had beneath my wings, you just depleted with this one! Sad story, yet so true, too often, the person that you adore barely gives you the time of day, time doesn't heal wounds under any circimstances, it just moves it along slowly. Distressing & captivating read.

[Dream Weaver]

Thank you dear Frieda, you know I'm already agreeing with you...and such a kind review to boot! :)

[KAOlmsted]

God can I relate to this or what...the dissolution of the illusion, yeah? ;-) Not everyone has the guts to make that move, and what's left is the dregs of a relationship, all spent and flaccid. Good stuff here...raw and emotional...with a blast of hope there at the end. Keep searching...

[Dream Weaver]

Thanks Kimmer, I believe many folks can relate to this one. A tale of co-dependency that went on for way too long...

[KAOlmsted]

I heard that ;-) My pleasure, always.

[Dream Weaver]

;-)

That is so real, story of dying love..beautifully placed with words! I don't understand why is that time has such a power over love! This is an awesome piece :)

[Dream Weaver]

Thank you kindly, I find that this happens to a lot of people sad but true...In my mind nothing last forever but we sure make a go of it... :)

[PP]

but I believe memories never die! This is a world of massive contradictions !

[Dream Weaver]

Sometimes the memories are all you're left with some good some bad..."A world of massive contradictions"...Absolutely!

[PP]

World is resting on opposite poles..so contradicts is all that we can expect!

[Dream Weaver]

I see..or possibly perhaps. Kismet?

[PP]

hahahahaha...Kismet?? Is that a Hindi word..or am I being absolutely stupid in assuming it to be so

[Dream Weaver]

You are correct lol :P

[PP]

haha..Destiny eh?

[Dream Weaver]

The last time I checked my Hindi manual that's what it meant lol

[PP]

hahaha..it does mean destiny! And why would you own a Hindi manual?? LOL

[Dream Weaver]

Hmmm? let me think? because I love all languages? मैं सीख प्यार

[PP]

EH? I can't read Hindi! LOL

[Dream Weaver]

Phew! cause I don't know what it says either? lol

[PP]

Lol! How did you manage to write it then? Google translator?

[Dream Weaver]

A lucky guess perhaps?

[PP]

girlfriend is Asian? Lol

[Dream Weaver]

Never had a girlfriend that was Asian, but now there's something to shoot for :))

[PP]

hahahaha...may be you've learnt that from local Asian takeaway?

[Dream Weaver]

OMG!....Asian takeaway or Asian takeout? :)

[PP]

hahaha..either way HOT and SPICY!

[Dream Weaver]

Well until then, I'll have to take your word for it :P

[PP]

Mark my words, they are stronger than oak!

[Dream Weaver]

I don't wanna be overpowered...after all I'm still a man lmao!

[PP]

LOL! I see
