The Poet's Lament

Contributed by Sapphire on Friday, 22nd August 2003 @ 08:25:00 AM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



THE POET'S LAMENT

Once as I lay in a dream far away,
I floated on petals of blue.
I awoke with a frown, and wrote it all down.
On paper my dreams become true.

I sat and I thought of the many I'd caught
As they fell to the page from the pen.
My life, so it seems, is lived only in dreams,
The realness is empty again.

I cannot ignore the fate that's in store
For me as I go through the stages.
Forever lonely, and love that's found only
In writing on these empty pages.

Maybe in time I will find one who's mine,
And then love may sow its seed.
But from now until then, I'll put it in pen
For more fortunate people to read.

Sapphire
