what might have been



                 for dreams last so long,
                               destined for what might have been-
      indulged in false hope




I chose: "You Were Meant for Me" -Jewel

I like Jewel but can't place the song - I'll look on YouTube and probably go, 'oh yeah.' Hard to fill 17 syllables with your unique meaning and use some song lines but you seemed to have managed it quite well. Good writing. I would especially like to hear the song if it is truly one of 'your life theme' songs, Bonnie Tyler's, "every now and then I fall apart" is for sure one of mine. Fun challenge. Poetry hugs ...

I often wonder...if false hope is nevertheless a hope... Nice Senryu
