Delusional Dreams:

As dark clouds fill my mind, Their shadows cast over my heart, Like a clock, you cannot wind, Still ticking, but will not start. Paralyzed delusional dreams; The truth in me sleeps silently. In hibernation, so it seems, To be awoken by your memory. Past sceneries haunt my weary eyes, Your fragrance lingers heavy in the air, Echoes of your voice that cries, Memories of the smiles you'd wear, Voices of you and I, so much pain, Relentless mention I was so wrong, I still see you in my forlorn brain, I was so weak, you were too strong. (A collaboration with Darren White)

What a wonderful poem. Great collaboration indeed, well done white wolf (cool name btw). "Past sceneries haunt my weary eyes, Your fragrance lingers in the heavy air, Echoes of your voice that cries, Memories of the smiles you'd wear," good example of what two minds can create.

Truly exceptional verses written by two fine poets, but voiced as if by one! Smoooooooth and holding truth about delusional dreams! I once lived in one for a long, long time. Top class all the way guys.

An excellent collab, Rick and Darren. Let me guess, you thought of the title , Rick. This poem captures the intense pain of separation from a loved one. Great poem by you too. Rick, I was working a bit on the holidays. Putting two poems a day ain't much, at least not to me. Ty for asking though. Happy New Year. Love and best wishes to you.

Rick, my friend, this was fantastic. I just read this on Darren's page. You two did a great job with this seamless piece of work. Two of my favorite poets. Bravo to you and Darren.

Yes, we amalgamated so well, and you were super quick. I looked up your blog and was very impressed! You have been a busy little penguin, Darren. Is there a shortcut to it? /|\
