PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

distant memories echoing bittersweet refrain

     as idle time permits them to emerge again

of youth's promise lost,

     and visions of everlasting love fade.



i stand here unchallenged by everything but fear

treading lightly on withered hopes

    i clear away the cobwebs of despair

and journey onward through tangles to gain

    the firmament, my sight now lucid,

fixed on the aurora beyond the dawn
