Am I misguided
By this that I see?
Have I been blinded
Or is this the key?

Must this be so
Or could it be not
That time in its flow
Missed what I sought?

Would you rather hold my hand
Or a pencil for your Light?
One you may find get lost in sand
I'll let you choose which one is right

Are there other things now
To take my place?
Then to those I bow
And show His grace

If time with me
Is no longer your dream
Then my heart can see
The fate of that beam

My dream, though
Remains the same
And this is the woe
I must try to tame

If not for here
Then maybe for there
I shall not fear
For nothing should scare

But when a dream is severed
Does the hope break with it too?
And can it sleep forever
A dream that's missing you?

Author's Comments

Kind of like Dream SAR...
I felt a lot of emotion tonight, and I guess it inspired some more poetry out of me. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, especially the end. I was thinking and for some reason the notion of putting a dream to sleep came to mind, and it was memorable enough to stick. Also, while watching a hockey game, another little phrase came to mind. It's kind of like "I tried to hold your hand but you'd rather hold your grudge." (Relient K)

Why all the emotion?

wow. I'm curious too... where'd all the emotion come from?

I'm always curious as to what inspires your writing. But now I realize that inspiration can't be limited to the boundaries of reality. Thanks for this. Your deviations always cheer me up.

I don't know... It's one of those things that made perfect sense to me at the time but looking back I can't figure out why I felt like that...

It was kind of building up for a while, and I guess it finally reached a point where I needed to do something about it, so poetry seemed good.

Can't be limited to reality?

Feeling heartless now.

Goodbye.
