Yes, it takes courage to relinquish a dream and face the cold, alone...

Chanti,

The atmosphere, alone, lured me in, willingly. The meter and rhyme floats, made me sigh audibly. To write the human condition, accessibly, yet so poetically, is a gift. We wish to draw a reader in with theme, so she can relate, yet express in a way that will linger. For me, you have done this with beauty and with honesty. I gasped, reading those last two lines. This is an exquisite piece. katy xox.

This is such a sad poem, with a beauty that truly hurts. Just remember, to choose to wake is not the final choice you'll have to make; but ask yourself why and when you believe you'll dream again.

My sentiments are much akin to Elga's...seems we both see the
same brilliance in your lines, Chanti.
"Waking" can be wonderful at times, but it depends on the sight
we behold when we finally open our eyes.

"In love she made a choice
the hardest one to make
to cling to dreams is easy
She made the choice to wake�"
There is so much meaning in these verses but the entire poetic creation is captivating in a surreal way (to me, anyhow). Thank you, Chanti. Love. Regis

Dearest Chants,

I don't often comment on your poetry, but this one, the more I read, the more the tears welled, and felt choked with such emotion. It is excellent in its entirety, but girl, your last four lines, speak volumes:

In love she made a choice
the hardest one to make
to cling to dreams is easy
She made the choice to wake� ----> some of us don't have the courage to wake :(

God Bless Chants
Much love
Elga
