Again

I walk between the shadows of this world and the next. Hoping for love in different faces, in different places. Only feeling bitterness and regret. For the love I once had that no other can replace, What I wouldn't give to stare upon your face. Into my dreams you hide in wait, only to remind me of what neither of us could escape. Although we may have tried, no other could provide what we knew was our's alone. No one could suffice, and for years they have paid that price. I can no longer fight what I have known was meant to be. This lie that I have been living, has left me broken and bleeding. I will have what I once did, and all be damned whom would stand between my dreams.

Wow - a powerful and well written poem Dawn. If this is your first poem I;m new as well so let me say welcome to the "Soup" group. Keep writing and I'll look for more of your work in the future. Hang in there - life's a "beach" but does have some beautiful sunsets! Terrell Martin
