Morning Mist on the Dumoine II by Peter Bowers

Mist of Morning Light

In the mist of morning light,
all dreams run back into the vanishing night.
The witching hour has come and past,
and fantasy fades until nothing lasts.

Our hopes slip away with the coming of the day.
Our dreams die leaving questions of why.
Do they ever come back from that blanket of black?
Will we ever have them again when the next night begins?

Only time will tell the dreaming tale of Men.
Only in our dreams will we be loved once again.

the dreams that get lost in the womb of darkness , they take shape in the first ray of the morning , only we need to capture em in our eyes and hold them till the spring showers the parched land of hope ...

A poem of lost hope and lost love. You ended this with two very memorable lines! This poem stands out.
