Deja Vu

What if you awoke

To a day with no sun;

A morning with no joy;

A bird with no song;

A flower with no scent?

What if you found out

That all you had ever dreamed of

Can never be;

That all you had ever needed

Was based on a fallacy;

That all you had ever asked for

Didn’t exist in reality?

What if one day you realised

That the one you really wanted

Was always by your side;

That the one you always needed

Was the one you pushed away;

That the one you still dream of

Is the one you’ve lost?

What if you woke up

And realised it was all just a dream?

Would you do something

To change the outcome,

Or would you just watch on

With this uncanny feeling of Déjà vu?

[Angelic Darkness]

I've had the feeling of D�j� vu several different times, and it is a strange
sensation, because it's like your head becomes fuzzy and almost like
familiar flashes that says, hey, I've been here before, done this
before.

This poem makes you think in a very philosophical way. I don't think
one should mess with destiny, fate, things happen for a reason.

[Jinx's Heart]

Very intriguing. I like the fluency and rhythm. It made me think for a few seconds there at the end. Bravo, comrade. I liked it very much!
