Dream of the Dead

A romantic poem with a tinge of sadness

DREAM OF THE DEAD

I was flustered 

I was in pain 

I was...I was so mesmerized

That I'd saw her again

I used to curse my life

After she passed away

Never did I try to love

Since the day I buried her grave

I write this in free verse

Because unlike rhymes

This comes from my heart, my soul

As I see her descend from sky

Her shimmering glaze

That sweet and cold look of her eye

And before I know she ascend to stars

And she brings love, light and hope

But inside I scream, not now, not again

I never ever wanted to let you go

If this is a dream, I never want it to end

I want to keep on dreaming forever 

Till the moment I perish in the sand

And yet she just caress me, she kisses me deeply

So that at least I may remain happy in my dreams

But what's the use of it...

But what's the use of it...

The main use is to always remember her maybe....she wanna keeps her memories fresh....actually not she but her soul!
I don't know how it feels to see the dream of a beloved one who's already left this messed tangled era...but only can read....
And this one makes me feel....no portion in the world can stop any body from dreaming and none got control in it....it's maybe the wants of the core heart or play of mind....
Great written Shubham😊

Free verse is bad a*s mother truckers.

Your poem touched me a little bit. Not like a sex offender but like a pretty good romantic writer.

I can almost taste your pain and it almost tastes just like mine.

If you did relate the character's pain to yours, If you truly did; I'd feel honored. Because if someone doesn't relate themselves to the narration of the poem, that work of art is still missing some jigsaw pieces.

If I didn't I wouldn't have said it.

You probably need to raise the bar of what makes you feel honored. Random dudes commenting on your internet poetry shouldn't have the power to make you feel honored or digraced. This just isn't that serious if you know what i mean.
