A Dream That Could Never Be

I liked you once

though now i see

that there is no chance

we were meant to be

but i'll dream anyways

 

You've got your friends

and i've got mine

and it really sucks

how i have to hide

my feelings from everyone

 

Maybe someday

you'll understand, you'll see

how i once saw

you and me

a dream that could never be

 

In the world around me

life will move on

but i'll still be dwelling

on that fantasy thought

that never came to life

 

An I hope you realize

I hope you see

that people aren't just black and white

though they appear to be

there are many shades of gray

 

I guess my whole point

is to make you see

you're not just another guy

not to me

you'll always hae your chance.

Pure of heart and deeply real....." that people aren't just shades of black and white , though they appear to be, there many shades of gray". What a wonderful lesson you have already learned that this person has not, no one can be perfect all the time. Our differences are some of our best strengths in life. I liked this poem because it had allot of good points in it, great write ...well done.

Isn't this the truth.
This is so well said.
Everyone is thier own person doesn't matter the size or shape
or color of our skin we all have a heart and it can break.
This is such a wonderful write.

I like how you have five lines and not the traditional four.
It adds something interesting to the work.

[Captain Ugly]

Deals with a hard thing to realize...and even harder to accept. A passionate outpouring of honest ache for love that wasn't...but could've been. I felt it.
Just Me.

purity of love is very evident in the verse...so what if there is no response from the other end, i ll dream about you anyway.........loved the concept.... :)

Sweet, articulate, and peaceful�I love the way you rhyme and add a twist at the end of each stanza. Your talent is wonderfully graceful but honestly, with such talent his eyes much be closed�nice write

This is good. It flows fairly well bar a bit in the middle
but i'll still be dwelling

on that fantasy thought

that part 'falters' but it dosnt need to be changed as you carry on with the rest from there. Nicely written with a nice message.
