Life's Dreams

[Valerie Dunbar]

Life's Dreams

I lived a life, so far removed
From what I ever thought for me
The fantasy of swirling dreams
Pictures I never thought to see
Yet even so, can I complain
For I am here and so are you
Nothing is ever what it seems
Can I say what is false, or true?

In the past the future lies
I have heard it all before
So bitter sweet the memories
Then I am never really sure
Yet even so, can I complain
For I am here and so are you
Taking a stance on a romance
To pay the piper when he's due

Ups and downs are purely chance
These things I have been told before
Sometimes too great, love in excess
Forever needing wanting more
Yet even so, can I complain
For I am here and so are you
Life's dreams ever wrapped up tight
so I can never misconstrue.

hi val;
just read your work for the first time and that was brillient and i have to say that you have reinspired me to start re writing work again
the reason for not doing so over m last period of time his that i have had alot of problems in my life of yester year with the loss
of two brothers all in a short period of time and my own personal problems behind the scenes on the home front;
; still; val please continue ingiving us more of your work its very up lifting 'at least for me ; but i am sure our other members do enjoy it as well;
best wishes astonian;
