Abandoned Dreams
I am here
With my abandoned dreams
Pining over you
For long and passionate nights
I'm easy prey
Sunsets come and go
And I live in memories
Love went very well for us
Find me again
Same place as before
I am still yours, in my heart and body
Reduced to a beggar
I want to hear your voice
I am yours, in vain I hide the traces
And I am ripping up the pages of life
Because you are stronger than me
Wherever the road leads,
you know how to find me
Why does the magic have to end?
We are kindred spirits
With every glance I hope to see you
You still burn in my heart
And I miss you badly
The sky knows
With my abandoned dreams
Pining over you
For long and passionate nights
I'm easy prey
Sunsets come and go
And I live in memories
Love went very well for us
Find me again
Same place as before
I am still yours, in my heart and body
Reduced to a beggar
I want to hear your voice
I am yours, in vain I hide the traces
And I am ripping up the pages of life
Because you are stronger than me
Wherever the road leads,
you know how to find me
Why does the magic have to end?
We are kindred spirits
With every glance I hope to see you
You still burn in my heart
And I miss you badly
The sky knows

Some always beckon, no matter distance or passing of time. Love, however brief, has that way about it. Well captured by your words.

Very true that some love transcend distance and time. Thanks AJ for the comment and compliment. :)
Re. Abandoned Dreams
Dear Kristina,
You write so beautifully and with such vulnerability. I feel this one deeply thinking about loves I've lost and believe me it's from a short list of true, romantic relationships. I love the simple honesty in this passage,
"Love went very well for us"
Sometimes we need to be reminded of the obvious...of what once was clearly felt,
Brava BD❣❣

Unfortunately you can not put the porcelaine vase back together. Time to look elsewhere. Fast. Put this behind you. Kisses, Robert.

Thanks for the comment Robert. I am just being overly dramatic in my expression, all relationships have ups and downs to work through and I would not say that the vase is broken. :)

It certainly feels overwhelming, the battle between the heart and will, wanting to give up.
Excellent write Kristina. You've conveyed an emotion many of us have felt at one point or another.
Thank you for sharing.

Dear K,
“ Sunsets come and go
And I live in memories” an amazing phrase to me for many reasons not least of which because I spend a good portion of each day in this state. I suppose the downs have to be there so we really appreciate the ups. But I, childishly, prefer only the the ups in a relationship. You have a very sweet approach to seeing both sides. I really admire that. Excellent write. H🌷

I think you are right that the down times, as hard as they may be, do have a way of making us truly appreciate the up times. There are always two sides so I think it is very important to always try and see things from both sides in all aspects of life. Thanks for the comment and compliment Honoria, xo

Lovely writing. There are those who left their dreams at the depot, as life passed them by.

KX I was drawn to the title of this beautifully vulnerable write like a moth to a light. Your emotional love story resonates with intense awareness of what is or was once present in most of us.... Keep the burn Alive, Love is worth it and no doubt you will continue to melt his heart with the burn bursting from your big beautiful heart! Your riveting style with words are always so impactful.......a true gift!

Love is the most beautiful thing in the world but it can also be the most painful. Thank you so much for the lovely comment and kind words, I am really flattered by 'riveting style...'. :)
Re. Abandoned Dreams
No more thinking about "quitting". The team needs you.
Unfortunately in most break-ups, one party gets hurt. Your piece made me feel your pain, your heart-break, your being lost without your partner. I'm sure you looked into yourself wondering what you could have done differently - a fallacy thought that you could be different than what you are. And you are a compassionate, passionate, emotional, fiery, complex person, but you are not impervious to being hurt. And I think, even if not at fault, you may blame yourself. Very impressed by the honesty and insight into your persona by this piece. Its clear you need or want someone to share your experiences and feelings, to protect you while also making you feel rapture.
Be well my friend and may you discover what you seek and need. And never abandon your dreams.

Okay, no quitting - got it! Normally I never give up on anything. :p
Relationships can be difficult, that's for sure. Sometimes we do wonder if we are with the right person and go through some hard times. Like I said I normally never give up but that can be a major flaw because sometimes it's the best option. I do have a tendency to blame myself also. But most definitely I want someone to share experiences and feelings, ... A very insightful comment. ;)
Thank you so much for the wonderful sentiment DaVinci. I will always seek and never abandon those dreams.

This one is about when I had to leave the UK and my boyfriend there. I had no choice in the matter which made it so much worse. I am so happy you found it to be excellent in the literary sense. I do think everyone has experienced a breakup or loss of a relationship at one time or another and so could identify with this sadly. Even if you are the one who breaks it off there is always an impact when you have been in a relationship for some length of time. Always passionate in everything. ;)
