Remember that dinner on that dimly lit pier <br />Lovers entwined under the candle light. <br />Remember that walk through the dense dark forest <br />Both of us lost yet feeling so safe. <br />Remembering is the only thing left to do, <br />My baby's left me, left me for someone new. <br /> <br />That cute cardigan that loosely lay upon <br />your fair shoulders always made me smile, <br />As did your imperfect infectious eyes. <br />But those eyes have made me realise, <br />That time can't heal nor distil <br />My baby's left me and I can't feel. <br /> <br />Once we shared a sex scented bed, <br />Now I lay alone wishing I was dead. <br />Last night I dreamnt we were sailing <br />down a perfectly still stream, <br />It was crystal clear and yet felt so near. <br />Your silk like hair was flowing in the wind <br />Like the young birds first flying wings. <br />We were happy on that little wooden dream boat <br />I wish for these dreams to come alive but they don't. <br /> <br />Remember when we laid on the sany golden shore <br />With sun bleached skin, sipping sangria and fine london gin. <br />I want to see you dance in the morning breeze, <br />I'll sell my soul, beg on my knees. <br />When I sleep our boat is afloat, <br />Yet when I wake the boat is broke. <br />Dreams may be the minds twisted take on life, <br />But at least i feel unotuched by loves cruel knife. <br />Remember Decembers chilling wind, <br />when we would sit together by the fire, <br />Life felt so complete. <br /> <br />Come back and kiss my aching broken body <br />Release me from dead loves lobby. <br />I cant compete with the words you no longer say <br />Nor can I face the thought of facing each day. <br />A brunette whore, a blonde bore, <br />thrity pounds and there always back for more. <br />I am aloft to reality <br />Our dream boat is slowly sinking into that crystal stream <br />and all I hear is my own desperate scream.<br /><br />Not Long Left<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dream-boat-in-memory-of-the-man-who-helped-me-to/
