A broken Life (short)

by sara   Aug 19, 2007


How do u measure a lifetime of dreams
with heart and soul lost in autumn fields

a life in dreams a futile quest
lost forever in seas of regret
This dark poet marches against the armys of fate

a prisoner of life, and a soldier of fate
the poet escapes to the cell in his head
safe from the silence that haunts her fallen mind

so how do you measure the worth of a life?
lost in translation, a poets darkened mind.
so she writes to save her broken life
and to teach others her chosen style

She longs to forgive her broken dreams
and allow herself to be free.

    This is a good poem. I was really confused was it written in the point of view of a guy, girl, or both??

    Very deep piece written with emotion...although a dream may be broken, the pieces can still be collected to reach that dream...
    nicely done!!
