Unreal

It seems like a dream now
It wasn't too long ago
But it no longer lingers over my head
It no longer feels like a memory

It feels more like a far off dream
A dream I only had for a few moments
A dream I could easily forget
But for some reason it still holds my mind

I know it was real
That is really happened
It isn't a dream
Or a silly fantasy

But reasons unknown to me
It doesn't feel like reality
He was real
That I know is true

He loved me
More then anyone ever could
And possibly ever will

I love him in return
More then I ever could
And possibly ever will

But he seems like a far off dream
Like I made him up in my own mind
Like for unknown reasons
He wasn't real

When he looked at me
It wasn't a simple glance
He saw something in me
That no one else did

That silly boy
With unreal fantasy's
Reality was far from his mind

He was real
And I see him still
In little things he does
That boy still lingers

He seems more like a spirit now
That no longer lives in the body
That walks around

In a way
He is a spirit
A spirit that still looks at me
And sees what no one else can

Author's Note

sorry this is kind confusing I was sorta thinking and writing out what was spinning around my head. I have been trying to write down exactly what I mean and feel but I can't seem to pin point it. Let me know what you about the poem!

A great poem with some interesting imagery. I would have to say that it flows very smoothly, and the structure of the poem is easy to follow. The imagery helped to enhance the emotions that you felt while writing this poem. I don't have any suggestions on how to improve this poem. It's an excellent read.

Love is feeling, being loved, love is loving to be loved, love is your poem to be read, not just once but again and again....Love is Love

He was real. Your experience was real. I love this. It's funny how our mind plays trick on us.

When we haven't talk to someone we like for a long time it can seem as if they are now a ghost. Well written.

Pros: I like this. It's pretty and I like the repetition of some of the verses here and there. It was thought provoking and a good re-introduction to serious poetry after my lack of reading it.

Cons: None.

Overall: I liked it.
