Yearning

I sit there, yearning,

Searching the history I never knew,

Looking at the treasures of the past,

Wanting this fantasy to last,

I could dress up if I dare,

But I will never, actually be there,

Maybe I have lived there before,

A reincarnated heart yearns,

An ach for a different era,

In which the men were gentle,

The women lady’s,

They dreamed of a marvellous future,

I dream of a Victorian past…

This is great and i would live in the time if Joan Of Arc and Pope Joan they are my favored woman out of all the great ones. I can remember many of my past lives and sometimes i even get the memories confused!! It makes me look crazy sometimes but i love who i am and the ability's that come with being an "old soul" :) this poem is really beautiful and stirs some foggy memory in my brain..... Let the research begin

[AWickedMoon]

Splendid read and write. Not many believe, but we're all reincarnated. Some remember, others don't.

[AWickedMoon]

Thank you. I believe in many things that can happen once you pass on but I've always been strangely attached to places I've never been. :)

personally i'd like to live in medeval times but that's just me... great poem though !!!

[AWickedMoon]

I'd love to live in medieval time to then I could be an adventurer!

[Enigma]

Definitely the Victorian Era. I've always said I was born in the wrong century, good to know I'm not alone in that. Riding horses, the Balls, royalty, Lords and Ladies, beautiful gowns, and gentlemen. I wouldn't have minded being courted...

[AWickedMoon]

Me to honesty I'd rather live in any other year then the 2000's lol Even the 80's!

[Enigma]

The 80's could be bearable. I agree, any other year then the 2000's, the only thing I'd miss from the 2000's would be the woman's uprising in strength and rights.

[minnie:)]

it would be nice to live in the past, all the beautiful gowns, the men were all gentle and full of manners, it would be amazing. the air was never full of gas from the cars and everyone rode a horse, my favorite animal :3
I LOVE your poem, its beautiful and it describes almost exactly what things were like in the past. beautiful.

[AWickedMoon]
