Poetry: Man of my dreams

Dreamers and idealists,
Hang on
Like a tenacious bulldog,
To what they want to be true.
Gripping fiercely. . . .
Refusing to let go. . . .
Even when their dreams lie before them
Tattered. . . .
Shattered. . . .
By reality.

So you see . . . .
As hard as I try. . . .
I can't quite seem to extinquish
That faint. . . .pinpoint. . . .glimmer of hope,
Flickering deep inside me, that. . . .
Some where,
Some time
I'll stumble across him. . . .when I least expect it.
And find
My dream is real
And has been longing
Searching
Waiting
For me.

    you were the magic in every bite
    the reason and rhyme in each of our fights
    nobody there, except only you
    up at the forefront

    You Danced With Me

    The night wasn't special
    The floors weren't even clean
    And the babies had been crying.

    My hair fell loosely
