About the Poem

This poem is about a love I'd had for 8 months when it suddenly ended. I wrote this after he unexpectedly showed up at my house to talk things over. The talk didn't turn out like either of us thought it would. But at least I finally realized one thing I had been missing - the fact that he never really understood me at all.

The Dream Of Lost Love

by Tabetha Charest

The dream begins as you open the door,
the wonderful feeling too strong to ignore.
Do you remember? Are you feeling it too?
Are you also wondering what to do?

Not knowing what to say,
please speak first, I pray.
Remembering all the promises and lies,
remembering the hurt that never dies.

The words that I dare not utter are flooding me,
the real you is the you that I never did see.
You swore to me you would never let go,
how the hell was I supposed to know?

Nothing you said was ever true,
you still don't realize you make me so blue.
How hurtful it is to finally see,
that even now you don't understand me.

These words are so true and full of real meaning. If people would think before they say things to hurt they would realize that you can't take it back later. I loved this poem because if people read it maybe they will think twice before saying somthing hurtful.
