My Dream Poem by Hunter Dasten

My Dream

Rating: 4.1


The burden of reality, and conscious procedures
prevent me from fully recalling just how vivid your presence was
though, I can venture with enough forethought, to express it:
Your hair seemed to float in a dance of jubilation through the air,
as if animated by the most crystalline ocean of a world yet conceived.
And what myths my mind invents of your phosphorescent smile!
Together we laughed with such enthusiasm it rivaled youthful innocence
I would vanquish all ambition, all human longing still
to have never left that dream, your presence.

Such attachment, I have never felt and may such a dream never come again!
May nightmares populate my evening, and terror grip each awakening.
I am not strong enough, to wake up with your face in my minds eye.
I am not strong enough, to handle that, when you're nowhere in sight.

I've read many poems about dreams-just finished reading for the 2nd time 'The Alchemist' your poem of 'My dream' is delightful. the burden of reality can prevent one from savoring dreams as they're being pursued. I enjoyed the style and its flow. I'm giving it a 10-however when I vote it does not register. Keep writing and thanks for inviting me to your poems and welcome to poem hunter!
