Dreaming

The dreamer sits,
he ponders life;
his wasted youth,
his lack of strife...

he thinks of things
that could've been,
his heart's affairs
and now and then...

he ponders love,
his once-strong flames;
the fires he's snubbed
to live again...

every fire
that burned him out
was unreturned,
thus full of doubt...

though he truly can't
have known if they,
the olden flames,
had wished to play,

to meet the flames
of the dreamer, so~
and his thoughts were lost
to the windy blow.

Left him still sad, did the windy blow.
