Distant Dreams Poem by Nyrical Poet

Distant Dreams

Navigating through the twisted paths of an insatiable fate
Turning left at every cross road to avoid my ill-fated mistakes
Running, screaming, turning, bleeding, my insides come undone
Distant dreams conceive the damage in me, as I dread the morning sun

Doubtful insecurities with a stench of fear permeating from my skin
With each breath I breathe, the reality seizes a life without my friend
As sorrowful streams waterfall slowly down a face in disguise
Distant dreams of the past tell me the sadden story of our demise

I watched the sandman come, and take my spirit away
Only shame sets in, with no excuses, blackened bruises of dismay
With the light of the early morning spreads the light of a brand new day
Distant dreams of magical lucidity tells a fairy tale of our yesterday

As the sandman left my soul, and allowed my spirit to fly
I let go of all the past memories that taunt me throughout the day and night
A new day is to begin this morn, as I shall always mourn the loss of my friend
Distant dreams with peaceful endings, we both have new lives to begin

As the story goes, 'its better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all, '
We shall live the life we dream, and allow the past to never let us fall
You will always be my best friend, as you are there when I close my eyes
Distant dreams will fade away into the midnight heaven's sky
