In Reality

Become a Fan

Crushed dreams after a break-up

In Reality

“Sorry,” you said, “bye”,

And abandoned ship,

As if our friendship

Was only a lie.

“Did you ever care”?

I wondered aloud,

Searching for memoirs

Of the man I loved.

Ghosts of sentiments

In a twilight dance;

Strings of instruments

Of discordant sounds;

Wishes, illusions

Heaped into a mound;

Unrequited love

Was all I could find.

“Where are you”? I screamed,

Echoes filled the air,

It was just my dream,

You were never there.

Wow! Powerful poem. Break-ups are such traumatic events. You echoed my feelings when I went through a divorce. Indeed "he was never there". Good job Mary.
