Grasping.

Originally written 1.4.2012. Broken dreams and shattered rainbows.

And yet I’m still sitting here

grasping in the air for all the broken dreams

that flutter down like feathers

like poetry

mocking me as they sway quietly

down and

down

in the air

towards the graveyard of

everything I’ve hoped for

towards the place where

broken dreams

and shattered rainbows

reside for eternity

towards the spot where

everything I’ve worked for

amounts to nothing

yet here I am

still sitting 

still grasping.

A nice poem . I enjoyed the read...

Very nicely written, such sadness and longing so well portrayed. We must never stop searching or reaching as long as we believe there to be any goodness in mankind. We must strive for it after all to make it exist.
