Broken Promises and Shattered Dreams...

Broken Promises and Shattered Dreams...

A Poem by Floydina White
"

A free write that came out while pondering life. Not my usual style, but I liked the way it came out.

"

I’m full of broken promises and shattered dreams
Food for the heartbroken and the hopeless.

Hapless and haggard,
I drink from the cup of Happenstance
And hope against hope…

Maybe there is a place out there
Where dreams come true
And people are truly happy---
Do you think it possible?

Maybe.

But in the Sandman’s kingdom,
Such thoughts are wasteful and futile.

I picture it as a conversation...with myself or whoever is willing to listen :)

I like this..its simple, and I can see a conversation in-between worlds...you and the dream keeper, sharing a coffee, talking about life, hope, what happens from here...

and yes. Hope is all we have when we lose everything else. I like your style, Ive not read much, but I like the calmness of it.
Me...I would be shaking my fist and stomping my feet...but you...not you. You lean back, drink in whats given, and smile.

A strange conversation indeed. But full of great lines. Love the sandman kingdom bit the best. You should do this more often. Kudos.
