Not my title, it was for a poetry competition on a site that used have a lot of my stuff on - now defunct
They supplied the title, we did the poems - I came fifth with this
(gutted, especially as they only paid to 4th place)
A bouquet of dreams
**************************
A bouquet of dreams, a posy of lies
Not quite what it seems O how I despise
The years of love, that turned into hate
The wasted emotion, the end of our fate
The blind faith that turned into morbid distrust
The passion and ardour that faded to dust
The three little words, that once meant so much
Now flightless birds, we're afraid to touch
No more laughter, just anguish and pain
Don't think I'll ever feel love again
A bouquet of dreams, a wreath round my heart
Fell apart at the seams, when I saw you depart
