A Poem: A Reel of Time Gone By


To revive, to rekindle
This passion, I have hoped.
To once again feel
The warmth of desire.
But this hope, this dream,
Fades on to naught.
And I am left with a reel
Of time gone by dreams.

I jabbed, I fanned,
At the long dying embers;

Where the flame of our love,
Once burned bright, burned strong.
Now, in the cold I am left,
Alone, blind and wounded;

With a dream, a hope,
To resurrect a reel
Of time gone by dreams.

Should I leave, let go?
Or hold on and hope?

This love, this connection;
Will it fade or bold?
So many wants, so many desires.
Oh, I wish!
I wish,
Your heart was still home.
