The Death of a Dream

~

 

Who walked in the muddy waters?

Who swam within the turbulent sea?

Who carried the weight of burdens grief;

Buried inside the harm of iniquity?

 

 

Who wrote promises upon the wall of eternality;

Wrought within the framed injustice of fate?

Who stands guard to imprison wisdoms passage,

into the knowledge of healing sate?

 

 

Who gently envisioned love’s destiny embraced;

Calling upon the name of virtues imbue soul;

Chambered by the devote breast of divination's grace;

Where wings to gracility's freedom were stole?

 

 

Passage of moments to now wonder;

The dream born of paths paved in guise;

When held closely upon awakening,

gone when the death of the dream cries…

 

 

In silent vain for resurrection,

the voices echoed in the hallways past…

Memories live there forevermore;

alone in all solitude’s despairing mask…

your song, is sung blue -- for it "wears a despairing mask, alone in all solitude" -- the smile of peace and serenity do not dwell in the lyrics of your song -- much peace and love to you my dear friend -- JMW

Lyrical and lucid; you bring color to your words with a depth that resonates with every verb! Good stuff. May the saint dip you in chocolate and strawberies and roll you in nuts, a little whip cream in the right places is always a plus. ;)
