The Dream

Draped within the mountain top mist I pause at the edge of the ravine muffled in thoughts of deep denial rage within, whilst jostling with the lure of life when slipping again and again as i dwell upon the love that once was mine. I peer into the Abyss lose my balance as I wake my head buried deep within the pillow yet knowing once again death I had foiled. © Harry J Horsman 2011

Finest entry for the contest but more than that the picture of denied love is so enigmatically communicated...I agrree with most of the words u have conveyed..
