A Dream Of You

What are we but memories passing
in the same stretch of life
following along our own paths
till once they intertwine

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A time we reminisce
drifting by your allure
a sip, to taste
to only want more


A string was cut
your time was no more
naught a tear that shall fall
when you left the pieces across the floor



……………………………………..
it’s just a dream, wake up
……………………………………..

________
But I wan’t to stay
But I don’t want to leave you behind
But I don’t want to wake up
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

……………………………………….
Quiet now, my dear
there’s no reason to hide
an excuse, naught hurt
till morning comes
……………………………………….

______
I’ll see you again
night after night
so there is no reason
to continue this fight
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

………………………………………………………………..
But i’m no longer here
i’m already gone
why waste your time here
instead of the world where you belong
…………………………………………………………………

While yes, it’s true
but there’s nothing for me there
for my answer is simple

A dream with your embrace is better than a life without your smile
wow i love this first line so much, and the last one too. I surprise myself sometimes

It's perfect,
My life.
Not a single worry to be found.

But when will it all fall apart?
When will I bolt out of bed
And realize it was never real?
This life of smiles
And laughter

It’s too perfect.
And feels too real,
Even as the corners fade to black.

Convinced:
Not awake,
I know I'm dreaming.

But the thing I dread most…
Is waking up.
How much longer do I have before the hourglass is empty?
How much farther can I tread before the road ends?

Not far, it seems.

The alarm screams at 6 am.
The fever dream shatters,
As I grasp at the jagged pieces.
I am dragged through my existence
In this dreary, gray world.
Until I fall back asleep.
Asher May 20
whenever i’m real,
nobody hears.
the media prefers silence
wrapped in static,
muted truths.

i speak of faith,
of laws,
of power
and watch the room
empty.

but sadness?
ah...
they lean in.
eyes soft,
nods rehearsed.
the ache is digestible.
the wound, relatable.

funny, isn’t it?
how we hush the loudest truths
yet cradle
our quiet despair
like it's holy.

we ignore the roots,
but mourn the rot.
it's funny.
almost.

Oh how this voice talks to me
Shredding me to pieces
It's abusing me
And I used to believe it

Sad but now I see
How this voice is abusing me
Finally I know
It's not true at all

All the things it says
It wants to possess
I will stop believing
All the messages I am receiving

It's beyond oblivious
How damaging
It's obvious
The strategy

I am a good manager
Of my internal landscape
My thoughts are nothing but clouds
But I am the Earth.
They pass by, I know why,
But I don't worry at all
I am strong, and
I'm loved to my core.

To wake up and wonder,
A blank screen, and a cursor
Blinking on and off,
Like ideas that stir,
And thoughts that drift,
In the docx, they confer.
There are so many short poems here that I had to write one -_- (I mean I wrote one with 900 words)

I have woken up,

where am I? In an ocean --


of sleeping silence?

Wake up ...

pick up ...
your feelings ...
sweetheart ...
let it be ...
as an ink ...
to flow ..
into your pen ...
to write ...
the poetic lines ...
about me ...
and about the heart ...
and it's weakness ...
about the memories ...
that lives ...
with nostalgia ...
inside ...
the imaginations ...
and your soul ...
to write ...
what you feel ...
about me ...
as i do feel for you ...

pick up ...
your pen ...
sweetheart ...
don't give up ...
and write ...
and be sure ...
there is a bright light ...
for the love ...
that we hold together ...
inside ...

hazem al ..

On a parachute

I'm gliding into the day --


I jumped from my dream.
"I. Preludium" (1954, Tomas Tranströmer)

Every day, I wake up
and im reminded of the mistakes I've made.
Every day, I wake up
lying in the mess I've made.
Every day, I wake up, and I pray for some relief. But at the end of the day,
the only thing I'm gifted with is more grief.
I want to get better,
but I need to get out of my head.
Even if it's just one night,
can I sleep in your bed?
