My Reality

Any Feedback Welcomed
Dancing a dream of dragon's wings,
Soaring above the sea,
Whiling away hours on end,
Needing my love to be with me.
Casting my net far and wide,
Searching the sky above,
Looking under mushroom caps,
Awaiting the wings of a dove.
Swallows fly and crickets sing,
The breeze becons to me,
I see him there and then he's gone,
Is my lover haunting me?
Morning comes with the sky laughing purple,
All ashes turn to dust,
Pixies fade into the night,
As all my dreams must.
Behind The Poem:
Still working through the loss of the man I thought was THE ONE.

Isn't it odd how our feelings tell our thoughts as our thoughts tell our feelings to the point we aren't shure which one is telling the truth
It's all a big ball of hurt, lonliness and betrayal to me at this point. Except for the dreams. And I wake up and then it all comes rushing back...
As it is wher the knife cuts the flesh, Times hand is soft as it heals inflected wounds, with soft hands the trick is time. The scar forms fresh stays the memory. Then as time
heals the scar fades, the memories and pain, both they do the same. Keep your chin up kid!
I don't want to get into a long involved personal history but when I was 20 I lost my love to suicide and barely got through that. I didn't think I would ever find a true love again, ever then found him and fell head over heels, just like a kid... I'm staring at 45 this spring and I don't think I have the time or energy to wait for this to heal. Thanks for the encouragement though.
You shouldn't get into history, just get into yourself. Love yourself and if no one else ever does rember who has and who does
Thanks.
Whatever is said "As all my dreams must." !! I enjoyed this write. Blessings.

Thank you Moogie!
You said you working through the loss of one when a new man stepped into your life and you found love again.So look at how that happened and trust that if its possible once its possible again..Don't give up....There is someone out there looking for you and your love and if you give up he might not find you if your hiding ...
Actually no. It took me about 15 years to work through the death of the first one. It was quite a few years after that that I met the man that I'm in pieces over now. I am giving up the search. It's not worth it. The heartbreak is too painful to repeat and I'm fairly sure this was my last shot... But thank you. I do appreciate your encouraging words.
I think your right about giving up the search.I'm a firm believer that its when your not looking that love finds you..I don't think anyone was meant to be alone.I've found that its our expectation through our hopes, wishes and dreams that lets us down.
I heard something along time ago and it took me a really long time before I truly understood it.You are the one who hurts you and only you can cause your pain..Well he went out with my friend behind my back,My other friend told lie's about me and called me names.They hurt me right ,why would I hurt myself..I wondered who was going to get me to believe this lie...
Well I now know what it means and even better is how to apply it..When we are hurt its because we've allowed ourselves to be hurt.We have control over who or what we let in to hearts and we can chose to ether be hurt or not to be hurt..
I guess I'm just hoping that you'll see that there is a whole lot more to you than the pain you've dealt with..Be happy girl...
That is true, we hurt ourselves. I've been told not to allow this to hurt me, not to allow his actions and words to control my feelings but how do you just turn it off? What hurts so bad is that despite everything I still love him. I don't want to, but there it is. It's just going to take time and some counseling I think before I am over this. In the mean time I will just keep plodding on, looking for some decent closure.
great poem

sad poem
but very good love it..
Thank you very much Nikki.
I'm a big fan of the surreal poems. nice one
Thank you. I have another rumbling around in my brain. When the words align I'll post it.
I like the delicacy of your images, particularly that early line about searching under mushroom caps. Never give up my dear - you still can find a partner. We all can.
Thank you. But I'm not holding my breath. I'm not looking either. I'm kind of in neutral trying to figure out where first gear is. I take every day as it comes. Most are good, some are still bad. Maybe I'm just supposed to be alone.
Whatever you think you are not alone. And you do have a flair at verse.
Thank you. Sometimes I don't write for weeks and then suddenly the words just come. Other times the words just seem to fight me so I go off and do something else, lol.
I have similar problems when composing. I really have to push myself to write down words when they are flowing.
Yes, sometimes it's painful, yet such a relief when done.
Amen to that. But I find that I keep tweaking the lines and words and punctuation. It does leave me exhausted though. Maybe that means I am doing something right.
Yes I believe you are. :)
So are you. You are okay kid.
Lol, thanks.
You're very welcome. I accepted your friendship. :))
Awesome. Thank you. :)
You're again welcome. Thank you. :)
By the way, I believe I know one of Eads descendants.
Well you live in the midwest near where his engineering work was done, so it is not so unlikely. I don't know much more about Eads than what I wrote. I think he died in the 1890s but I'm not sure.
