Discarded Dreams

Discarded Dreams

A Poem by Michael Lopez
"

A dream deciphered by me.....

"

Wishing I could be with you,

sit and watch the days just float away.

Like walking on glass I feel the pain on the inside.

Life isn't what it seems,

you don't get the girl of your dreams.

Coming and going

I try to catch you in the moment.

Putting up with lies, 

hoping I never have doubts about you.

Every moment I feel it even more.

Today is the day I am going to go after you.

 

I always find myself,

veiwing life from where I stand.

Keeping all the feelings bottled up, 

this is the depressing happiness thats  inside of me.

What do I have to do to escape the grip of you.

Dance...

feel the groove,  

temperary ecstasy,

minor sanity.

Roaming the streets searching for meaning...

Finding failure,

and excepting it.

86ed from society,

being beyond atonement,

living in lies,

I can't even play my cards right.

I am sorry for the things I've done.

I don't know why I even did them.

I live on impulse,

I don't think I just do.

Thoughts floating around my head like stars,

So I grab one to see whats inside.

It effects me in so many ways,

that the girl I am with...

isn't the girl in my dreams.
