Poem: Shattered Dreams

I dreamed

of you last night.

You were smiling

and kind to me.

It brought me back

to a time

when all was good

and fine.

I hoped

and dreamed

you were the one

who would fulfill

my romantic dreams.

Obviously,

I was wrong.

Reality wasn’t

so kind.

It left me feeling

sad and blue,

empty,

and broken-hearted.

Shattered dreams

and broken promises,

remnants of a love past

too much

for the heart to bear.

Feelings so strong

that now

I’d rather be alone.

How could you

disappoint me so?

You broke my heart

and left me hanging

onto a fantasy

that never materialized.

Shattered dreams

and broken promises,

remnants of a love past,

one hoped to be everlasting.

The memories

will always

be there,

corrupting my mind,

breaking my heart,

shattering my dreams,

ruining my life,

leaving me

with shattered dreams

and broken promises,

remnants of a love past.
