It was cold,
but he was sweating.
He felt old,
and started running...
far away,
"what a day"!
He needs a space...alone
and it was almost dawn
when he saw the bridge
up the river
standing on the edge
starting to shiver
and there was rain
a whistle...a far train
an old music tone..
a song...and a moan..
"Standing in the rain.
You're on the verge of going crazy and your heart's in pain..."*
should he let it go?
should he withdraw?
"I can't take it anymore"
a lost ship...away from the shore
Closing his eyes...he sees her face
"I need a space"
and here comes the scream
the expectations...the dream..
the day he came
the disappointment...the shame
"No one can hear though you're screaming so loud
You feel all alone in a faceless crowd
Sitting on the side
waiting for a sign, hoping that my luck will change.
Reaching for a hand
that can understand,
someone who feels the same"*
**********
A sudden move, and a sigh
he opens his eyes
"4:30 am"...a clock nearby
and he smiles
"what a dream"...he sits in bed
inspired by a poem...he just read!!
*"Weird"...a song by Hanson
(picture: a bridge in Pittsburgh, PA)
(a special thanx to Eve for the song/poem that inspired the dream, and the post!)

Ya Allah, Hashem
Your poetry is so simply written
Yet absolutely wonderful....
You get to the point and it hits the target gloriously
It may have been a dream, but why did you have it?? You should get it interpreted. (that is if it was your dream?)
I just realised that this dream was inspired by a song.....woops
Still get it interpreted, just to see what it may have meant...
Eve-you know what inspired the dream..;)
Gus-I hope you feel better...cheers
Fouad-It's a nice song...I heard it for the first time afew days ago.
