[ARCHIVE] POEM-A DREAM WITH YOU

Across the room of many faces

Whom I barely know

I was picking up my paces

For there you stood, still and white as snow

Your penetrating eyes

They seemed blank with tears

You looked at everything

But to you, nothing was all there is

I came over and said

"Will you dance with me?"

There was no answer

Just a smile

Making me wonder deeper

Should I have stayed away a mile?

A scream so sudden

Shook me up

Getting me up

Just like a wounded pigeon

I see you falling

A face so serene

But you never looked up

On your face there's traces of pain

that no one can ever sum up

Across the room of many faces

whom I barely know

I was picking up my paces

For there you lay, still and white as snow

You're not just a dream

You are real

My dream with you

Remember always, I will.

I'm not sure what my inspiration was, why or when I wrote this poem. Just browsed through my old blog and found this gem. Edited it a little bit, because the original version was too cheesy =P

Written while I was in INTEC, this poem is quite naiive and innocent, don't you think? Belum ditampar makcik hidayah dan disiram tarbiyah lagi. Haha. It depends on how you intepret it. Just thought that didn't want this to be lost in time. =)

Wassalam.
