dreamers loss
I used to be a dreamer
Not so much anymore
The world has wearied
Me over time, made me
Feel as though I can not
Afford to keep dreaming
It is a loss that I feel into
The depths of my soul

Powerful poem and I feel the aching loss in my soul too.
Maybe we can find a way to get it back someday!
Your poem makes me think about the relationship of dreams with the loss of whatever it is we long for. Your poem hits me hard on that level. Its important for me to acknowledge that so I can move on. Thank you.
I hear poems come from where we dream—if that is true then the existence of this poem makes it seem that you do dare to dream! So keep making more poems– Please! New dreams will come! Thank you for sharing.
I hope that we’re all still dreaming, even if we don’t always realize that we are. I hope you’re right! That writing poetry means we are still dreamers, just in different ways.
I feel this in my bones. Let us unite and dream on!
Yes!
