forgotten dreams

In two eyes just one dream

living through one stream

if I was told the scheme

would I have stayed

 

silence filled with thoughts

no place for hidden spots

who wouldn’t have sought

for ever more

 

but time took your heart

and now we grew apart

i wonder when I did start

to look away

 

now in my lonely nights

you visite as sweet sad sights

and in the morning lights

you disappear

Theres something really emotional in the recurring theme of sight and vision in this poem.... Through the eyes to dreams to reality.... Really conveyes the feeling of a closeness developing into growing moving further apart..... Lovely poem
