Aborted Dreams Poem by Christa D

Aborted Dreams

Rating: 5.0


Swimming in a lake of pure gold
Doesn't matter when there's no passion to hold.

Although his pockets seem bottomless,
And his wallet was as thick as the darkness.
His heart confined more than one wrinkle.
Isn't a tycoon's eyes supposed to twinkle?

During the blossoming season of his existence,
Classical melodies and his heartbeats were in convergence.
The lights of the music hall were shining brighter in his dreams
But, his ideal was received with heated words and even screams.
In a moment of fear, he left his passion melting under the sun.
Can a void be filled by the fortune that has been won?

In moments of agony, when every inch of his heart feels dry
He wonders what could have happened if he has refused to comply.
