Dreams and Memories


Dreams are made of porcelain

Time and space is wearing thin

Lay dusty in my mind's cabinet

With memories long torn and rent

Are the skeletons of experience

The poems lacking a cadence

Countless senseless actions

My old, belated passions

Locked in cobwebbed caskets

Rotten fruit in broken baskets

To which only I possess the key

Empty dreams and rusty memories.

I wrote this poem while chatting with a bunch of people online. It wasn't one of my 'run off to the forest and recieve inspiration from the scents of sylvan surroundings'. Haha. It's supposed to be shaped somehow like a keyhole, but I have a feeling I didn't quite reach my mark with that one. Nevertheless, it captures my meaning...broken dreams and empty memories. And I keep on dreaming, and I keep on storing memories.
