bereft of dreams

zdunno03's avatarLeonard Durso

there they are
those faces
from the past
filtering through
my dreams
causing confusion
asking questions
that can no longer
be answered
about their take
on events
long gone
and I break
an oath
pour whiskey
down my throat
in the vain attempt
to find sleep
bereft of dreams

  1. pour whiskey
    down my throat
    in the vain attempt
    to find sleep
    bereft of dreams

    I tried this for 35 years. The fear dreams and dreadful nightmares remained and only the dreams of aspiration and hope were dulled and killed.
