I've lost the joy that used to meet your smile, <br />And found without its light my life now feels <br />That I have squandered love; It takes a while <br />Before faith's misconception hurts as real. <br />In emptiness your voice leaves sounds untouched; <br />The tones and memories of brighter days. <br />If I had only known I loved you this much, <br />I'd not have lost the light for darker ways. <br />Where secrets hide beneath a stoic voice, <br />The fear which bars your music soft from me, <br />I can not bear this hurt, but have no choice; <br />The dream I dared not dream means such to me. <br />I can not see nor hear that which I know, <br />But blinded thus, I dare not let love go. <br /> <br />-August 26,2005<br /><br />David Zvekic<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-dream-i-dared-not-dream/
