:
Its that time
That time again
The time
When i see you smile
And fall in love
All over again
But then again
The thought gets lost in the wind
As i wake up from a dream
The One i can never live in
As reality strikes
I come to grips with life
And realize
For you i am but a shadow
Maybe a cloud passing by
But then again
I look into those eyes
And that thought vanishes from my mind
And i loose sense of wrong and right
As i stand dazzled by the glow in those eyes
Try as i may i can not forget
The gleam
The joy
The life
Inside those eyes
And that gleam
Leads me to my dream
A place i'd trade my whole world to be
Hold those hands i never may
Or be the reason behind your smile
But i know for sure
You are the one behind mine
Even if its only for a while
What a beautifully written poem! It reminds me of one of my favorite Dr. Seuss quotes:
"You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams."
This poem takes the idea of dreams being better than reality, because in our dreams we don't have to feel unrequited love. But one of my favorite aspects of love is the fact that even if it is not returned, we can still derive happiness from it, simply by seeing the other person (which reminds me of one of your other poems)--and that's part of the beauty of the enigma of it.
I truly enjoyed reading this--thank you for sharing it!
"Hold those hands i never may
Or be the reason behind your smile
But i know for sure
You are the one behind mine
Even if its only for a while"
I like the gentle way you look at love. Accepting less and still holding the love near. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
