Dreams Of A Child Poem by Dave Alan Walker
Dreams Of A Child
I was just a kid
In love with you
I couldn't sleep
For thinking of you
You never hurt me
You never sent me away
You always loved me
In your own special way
I was a child in madness
Violence and sadness
But you showed me the way
To love one day
I thought I loved you
I thought you loved me
I guess it was
Just the tears of a child
Wanting to be loved
When I laid in bed at night
And heard the pain
Of my mothers plight
I'd close my eyes
And think of you
You never hurt me
You never sent me away
You always loved me
In your own special way
Dreams of a child
Turn into nightmares of a man
Making me want to end
This life of hell
But then I think of you
And the dreams I had of you
And decide to stay another day
Childhood memories lost
Except for the ones
Of knowing you
You never hurt me
You never sent me away
You always loved me
In your own special way
When I lie down and die
I will always know
I at least loved once
Never let the Hope inside you die, after the rains there will be a sunshine and who knows you will be lucky to see a rainbow as well. Hope for the best in life :)
I took a look at it, what a great piece of poetry. Thank you for your comment on my first poem
This speaks of the power of love. If, no matter how terrible life can be, we find one memory pure and beautiful which evokes the tender feeling of Love, that can be just enough to get us to want to be, another day. Nice poem.
Read this after reading your Member Poem of the day - you have a sad story indeed to tell, but we often develop an inner strength through difficult life experiences and such experiences turn us into more understanding and better people. I speak from personal experience myself.
Heavy poetry. Thank you for the comment on my poem by the way!
Wow Dave. Very moving, and very powerful words here! Well done my friend.
that was so moving... it truly touched me and thats the meaning of real poetry. when your feelings can agree with the words and what you read. thank you.
This is why we dream. It many times takes us out of reality but it also gives us something powerful to hold on to. What I love about a dream is no one can take them away from you. When you write about it as you did with this great poem, you lock it down forever. Thank you for sharing it with the world. J. L.
