I was waiting on a dream
two minus two equals zero
a stray golden moonbeam
you were my superhero
Lifting me up into the light
floating in zero gravity
trying to hold you tight
living in another reality
you drifted away
gone, gone, gone

"Waiting on a dream" is a potent term and I like how you expanded it into your narrative, Truedessa.
ReplyDeleteI relate to your gone, gone, gone closure. There's no bigger nothing.
ReplyDeleteZero equals gone times three.
ReplyDeleteWell done, Truedessa! I love the idea of floating in zero gravity!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful romanticism and nostalgia.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderfully you have conveyed the sense of ending with nothing - Jae
ReplyDeleteOnce we wake the beautiful dream is gone.... but fortunately also the nightmare.
ReplyDeleteYour ‘waiting on a dream’ resonated with me, Truedessa, and I would love to encounter a stray golden moonbeam.
ReplyDeleteTouching - the dream that fades away...
ReplyDelete"Two minus two equals zero" puts it so well. Sigh. I love the stray golden moonbeam too.
ReplyDeleteSuch an emptiness….
ReplyDeleteSo sad... But beautifully sad. I hope your Christmas season is filled with the opposite. =)
ReplyDelete"waiting on a dream"--a very poignant poem, Truedessa!
ReplyDeleteWay to incorporate 0. I like the 2 minus 2. Must be my former accountant self lol
