Gone Away

Gone are the years

Gone are the wings

All that is left are broken dreams and wistful wishes

The voices of an angel are singing for you

No harpsichord or melody could be so bittersweet

There is no other way to live or be

Dream big and hope that you are

A star to the calling

A star in the making

A shining star for all eternity

Voices in the head aching so bad

It makes the ears bleed

Away, away

No more hoping

No more wishing on a shooting star

It's all coming true

and soon you will see...

A dream

A reality that once was a fantasy...

This piece offers hope but I was a little confused in the beginning. Overall the idea I get is that dreams can come true in real life and not like a fairy tale or happily ever after, but a real dream, a real calling. Thanks for sharing.

it's good to dream because dreams do come true if you beleive and i beleive how about you nice job

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
