A Dream within a Dream


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Take this kiss upon thy brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow—
You are not wrong, to deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.

I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand—
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep—while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?

-Edgar Allan Poe

The Worst Pain Known To Me

The worst pain known to me

Is to be stuck on a love that never could be,

To love

Mask
I was once sad and lonely,
Having nobody to comfort me,
So I wore a mask that always smiled;

My He(art)...

To love another with all of your heart

Can be seen as a work of art.

 

The Kiss That Was

have you ever had a kiss

that took you on a bliss

and left you with shaking knees

My Love...

You make me laugh and smile

when I need a cry, even if it's only for a little while.

It Is Gone

The way I used to smile,

and love our favorite song

The way it felt so right
