End of Summer

• Artist: lonesomepoet19
• Description: it's a poem I sorta linked with the shakespearian play a midsummer nights dream, the fact summer is almost over, and some sad stuff that happened awhile back.

I can see you smiling when I close my eyes,
A summer night, sitting under the cloudy skies,
when you tell me you love me, I fell into a dream,
When I realize I have, the sky tears open and I want to scream.

You were everything I loved, all that I cherished,
When you left all of the hope I had accrued perished,
I don't know whether to be grateful or to cry,
I wish I didn't dream, happiness hurts, and that was your curse.

I can feel you next to me, even when I'm alone,
You were painfully light, brighter then any star shone,
You made me wish, like a star soaring in my view,
Like a shooting star, unattainably beautiful, you dissapeared on cue.

If you don't know what love feels like, you'll know when its gone,
The truth is corrupted, lines blurred, everything truth and con,
you were my pinnacle of happyness, now I only wish to die,
I want to live, but I see no other ending then a hearse.

I search for love, but it is always ahead of me,
Sorrow is always close by, it perches on my shoulder,
My past sins forever trailing behind, hidden where I can't see,
I never believe it, but my world can always get colder.

Passion has made me blind, I see but nothing makes sense,
I want to believe my wishes will be heard somewhere,
But I never learn, dreams can't be reached, I may be dense,
I should pitch away all emotion, survival without a care.

But I can't, my heart marches to it's own drummer,
So I must brace for the cold, it's the End of Summer.

Over all this is an awesome poem. I enjoyed reading it a lot. ^-^ You used then when you should have used than to suggest a comparison (then suggests a time in which an event takes place). This does not, however, detract from my ability to enjoy your writing. I'll give it 5/5.
