where the sky burns black




i sit

alone

and wait
and hold my heart

and here,

the whisper
a whisper held

close

to my breast
a dream i dream
yet know

there are no dreams left
for me

and thus wait
alone
for morning.

    In waiting for the morning is there not hope, and is hope not part of what dreams are? At least that is what I think. I like the simplicity in the language you use in the poem. It seems to add to the emotions that are in the words - the hopelessness that you are writing about. It is a simple poem, yet powerful. The simplicity of just sitting waiting, and the struggle to dream or not dream.

    This may sound perculiar - but it gives me hope, somehow. Perhaps it is the challenger in me, that remains defiant forever lol

    Oh but Richard ...

    the most beautiful dream awaits us, Poet ... And: your words write that unspoken Dream so very well ... In its Absence, it glows ... whispers ... promises: the New Dawn.


    Love
    Myra

    Love that part. Keep up the good work as always.
