Poem of the Month
I have come to understand what dreams are...
not in the sense of those one has when one sleeps...
but of dreaming while eyes are open...
to see something in front of you and never wanting to close your eyes...
i understand this now...
i have come to understand why someone might leave their lover...
in order to find themselves...i should only hope my understanding of this does not leave a taste so bitter, that it leaves me with no choice but to stop searching at all...
i have come to understand love a little bit more...and how fragile it is...
how if taken for granted for a moment...it leaves...as i am left...as i am alone...
as i am...as i understand...if ignorance is bliss...understanding is love...
as i now walk in the ever narrowing shadow of a love i cannot keep pace with...
for it is leaving...for i have never understood...a painful understanding indeed...
for i now understand...what it means to have a dream differed...
