no title--just venting

by HeWhoSeeks - Aries

I dreamed a dream of you and of me.
I dreamed a dream of we.
I dreamed a dream that was painful to see
wherein I did kneel and weep.

I dreamed a dream I looked in your eyes.
Was what I saw there a lie?
Your honey words did convince me to fall,
and what lied therein to deny.

I dreamed a dream I would have be true
I would gladly give all
to live that moment once again
wherein I was compelled to fall...

I dreamed a dream you remained but a night,
after which you took swift flight
leaving me with blurred sight
fading with the setting moonlight.

I dreamed a dream that I would love,
yea, would give all of my self
only to find you'd leave me behind
ragged, torn upon dusty shelf.

I dreamed a dream with honey you spoke,
a precious promise to make,
but you let it fall and shattered it all,
and with it, I too, did break.

Now naught is left of you or of me.
Nay, nothing is left of we.
I dreamed a dream too painful to see,
and I awoke----weeping.

Reason for writing:

    had to get something out...to allow myself to move on
