Broken Dreams

by Sarah Hickey - Aries

This hurt that courses through my soul,
Brings my heart to tears
Tears of pain and tears of love
only enhancing my fears.

In a pain which consumes my very self,
Stealing away my life,
Losing hope, but gaining faith,
Barely winning this strife.

With a sadness full of broken dreams,
It hurts my mind to think,
Of the perfect love and perfect hate,
And I begin to sink.

My body is sore from those words you muttered,
My ears wish they could not hear.
For what you said I would not know,
And I'd have nothing left to fear.

I'm thinking it was all a dream,
And I'll wake up to my perfect love.
But, alas, I can keep on dreaming,
And watch that love slip away from above.

Reason for writing:

    I really liked this guy who seemed to like me when I talked to him on the phone, only, it turned out he was just leading me on or something and went out with one of my friends.
