Clinging to a precious dream
That's now a thorny rose,
Floating through the atmosphere
Upon the wind that blows,
And passing by so quickly as
My destiny runs wild,
With all the hopes of long ago
And memories of a child.
Clinging to a precious dream
Yet still it's not come true,
The hope grows ever distant now
But no more can I do,
And when I sleep and wake again
Each day seems like the last,
I think of all my choices made
And chances that have passed.
Clinging to a precious dream
As love now fades away,
I cannot hold it anymore
My loneliness will stay,
My life has been just like the waves
Upon the restless sea,
And now I know my precious dream
Was never meant to be.

This is like the story of Beauty and the Beast, when the last petal was about to fall But wait Andrew, there is more! ! ! Take care Love duncan X
Andrew, this is written with so many pedals of sadness and yet filled with so much hope of a better tomorrow.. Although the reader sences a feel of sympathy, it also makes the reader feel a sence of pride for which you have written inspite of the sadness from within.... Very good write, but dont ask me, as I love all your writtings! ! Bonnie
Beautifully written piece and raw with tender feelings. There is hope with each new day, look ahead so that new chances don't become 'chances that have passed'. Wonderful poem and heartfelt too. Best wishes, Kathleen.
A sad and touching poem Andrew brilliantly written! *10plus*! ! Keep clinging to your precious dream For 'one day' love will come your way Loves not blind and this you'll find - Till then this precious dream will stay! Friend Thad
