Breathing softly, breasts rising roundly
wishful hopes unfettered by reality
Dreaming dreams of what might be

Sleeping sweetly, sleeping soundly
Softly breathing, softly sighing
Fair innocence touches thy cheek
No cares do mar thy countenance

The years have yet to do their damage
Unfulfilled aspirations to quench thy spirit
No hardships met to release the savage
Of a beloved's betrayal without merit

Come! Awaken sleeper from thy slumber
To a world yet undiscovered
Filled with dreams and mysterious wonder
Come dreamer, take my hand
And we'll explore together

We'll roam the fields
And trod the heather
Fear not the day, lest you discover
That a life is over, and there is no other
And one by one, all your dreams
Have trickled ..away...

- Stoney, 25 Sept '94

The Dreamer

Breathtaking and thought-provoking piece.
I loved how the words all blended in together
and flowed so perfectly...
Quite peaceful...
I felt like I was floating on a cloud
throughout the majority of this poem.
Being 13 myself, you've scared me of the future now lol..
If all that's going on in my life now appears like nothing as to what I'll be facing later,
well then, it's enough to scare any 13 year old...
Great work! Look forward to reading more of your work soon...
