Lost Symmetry
Between dreams, memories and realities
there remains in life no symmetry
Dreams have their place in time, space and poetry
sending the soul soaring to the heights
and depths of boundless emotions with
knights in shining armor and true loves bliss
Memories, often bittersweet to the soul, explode
without warning, their scattered pieces
caught up in time’s mind-stripping whirlwinds
soon carried off to the land of Forgotten Abyss
Reality, the wakened state of living one’s life,
in the here and now, with eyes wide open to what is,
what’s been and what probably will or not be
as hope falters and the soul wonders what’s amiss
Yes, dreams have their place, lost love memories tease
and reality becomes the sworn enemy
