Vijay Pandit Poet Verse

I Dreamed a Dream

You wrote the song that enchanted lyrics
Composing avid tone to melody of music
Attuning cleverly to tenor of fantasies
Sending sensual hints to passionate wishes, 

As vibrant stars ceded to darker motifs.

Infantile was my dream in night's reverie
Cuddling arms of love, hugging intently
Delighting in whispers of zealous winds
Wooed by romance of affectionate feelings,

Just before the misty sky began drizzling.

It was really you, who trampled my sleep
Just when I approached beholding your kiss.
Dismantling motives of amorous destiny
You disavowed with vigor allures of affinity,

Flashing a warning, a storm was brewing.

Rejecting my overture, you left the scene.
Your seduction was real, so was your love--
Indelible prologue to tomorrow's memory,
Yet truly ephemeral, as dreams tend to be.

The dream I dreamed never belonged to me.

CayCay Godwin February 22, 2019 at 11:45 PM THIS IS SUPERB, IT IS INSPIRED and though I'm willing to be wrong, its feel has a flow-tone that reveals the rawness of a pen fueled by an intimate knowledge of these emotions. As therapy, I often find rhyme seeks to heal me, and this has that authentic feel - which I think is an excellent thing! Poetry hugs ...
