Dream By Dream Poem by Lora Colon

Dream By Dream

Rating: 5.0


Dream by dream, I felt his presence,
A spirit formed of love and light,
A welcomed guest in my loneliness,
Sweetly whispering in the night

Dream by dream, the truth unfolded,
I'm no longer chained to sorrow,
He slayed the dragon of regret,
His courage is mine to borrow

Dream by dream, I watched the power
Of persuasion fly like a dart,
My will was pierced, then all went numb....
Swiftly, he overtook my heart

Dream by dream, I fought surrender,
Then, he transformed my shattered world,
Bravely, I walked toward my captor,
In my hand, the white flag unfurled

Dream by dream, I was overwhelmed,
Now I still ask how can this be,
But could I live without him now....?
Impossible.... he's part of me!

I tell you guys, it's just no use. Girls are so much smarter than we are! She sees her dream closing in for the kill and slows down just enough for him to catch her. And you know it works every time! We are always so amazed to have caught our dream at last.... God, being in love is so much fun! If only I'd remember to take a smart pill when I woke up this morning! See! Just dumb!

All your poems are written from your heart, so they touch my heart too. Day by day, your poems are getting better and better. It is perhaps high time you had your poetry published in a book form. If this poem is a reflection of your own life, even by part, I am so happy to know about it!
