Why should I ever wish to wake
Into this weary world I see?
It never wants my dreams to make
By letting your love live for me
It only ever wants to tease
And tempt my empty longing heart
It mocks all my attempts to please
And laughs whenever you depart
I walk along a pavement grey
That is the colour of the sky
Into another restless day
That will not pass me by
Why can't I dream myself a life where you and I are ever free
To live our days with love alive as dreams are meant to be?
This is lovely, great ~flow~ and rhythm to it. It's how I feel, in sad/hibernation mode here these days <sigh>
nice ending...i like how it lingers.
azmuse, clean out your pm box.
OOPS!
Its a beautiful poem .... simple words saying a lot .....

Well thank you angel.
Tell me, are you in disguise?
Faith is believing what you know ain't so - Mark Twain
The preachers deal with men of straw, as they are men of straw themselves - Henry David Thoreau
The way to see faith is to shut the eye of reason - Benjamin Franklin
The teaching of the church, theoretically astute, is a lie in practice and a compound of vulgar superstitions and sorcery - Leo Tolstoy
Really nice poem. It all feels very natural and real.
Hey atiguhya padma .... me in disguise ??
and if not angel what do you think I am ??
-angel
Hey angel,
You sure must be busy elsewhere in the world (or Heaven) as you've only visited us 3 times since May 2003.
Did someone kick you out? (of Heaven that is.)
You know what I reckon? I reckon your not an angel at all. I reckon your a poster. Or maybe even just a post. Or even a series of posts (albeit with only 3 episodes). After a few more posts, you'll probably develop a perceivable personality. When you reach the giddy heights of a thousand posts, people will already think they know who you are.
Just like life really....
