Once It's Over

ONCE IT'S OVER

Let them go
the thoughts
and dreams
of possibility

Reality hurts
and crushes the
dreams we believed
were attainable

But forces
work against us
we feel panicked
fragile
useless
hopeless

Until that small
voice inside
compels us to
fight
against
the naysayers

Creativity
in all forms
requires the
inspirational
spark
to ignite
the flame

That is seen
by generations
yet to come
burning bright
inside them so
the arts don't
die
without
a
fight

Thank you too. i feel blessed by those words

I appreciate that

that was amazing, if something, have you thouhgt about centering the text?
in my mind it would give it a incredible esthetic.

Thank you @gacorniel but I choose to left justify the text to keep it simple and emphasize breath.

oh ok, an artistic choise. it look cool tho.

Thank you for the suggestion and I did think about it...years ago I would have never written anything not centre justified...I guess things change as we get older @gacorniel...

well yeah. with age we evolved

your poetry is light, your poetry explains me and my mind.

your poetry is very good
