"Song of My Heart" | Poems, #015

Song of My Heart

 
My heart sings of a place,
Of colour, warmth and soft edges,
Where one can get lost in love,
And beauty beyond imagining.
 
It also sings of a time,
Of virtue being coveted,
When dreams and ideals become real,
And we all live in harmony.
 
It sings whether anyone would listen or not,
Wishing only to fulfil itself,
But I have heard its melodies,
And been enchanted by their depths.
 
How hauntingly beautiful you are,
Oh, song of my heart...
 
But oh, how far away.

After reading this again, I closed my eyes and shuddered a little.... lol. Besides being a bad poem in terms of poetry in general...:

When dreams and ideals become real,
And we all live in harmony.

... And then what?

Let it be known that I am no longer so sickeningly idealistic. I am generally an optimist, but now I realise that, in fact, a place/time as described above wouldn't even be a good thing. We humans need problems... Conflict is what drives us. Agent Smith was 100% correct.
 
This reminds me, too, of Christians and their heaven... They don't realise that such a place wouldn't be desirable. It would be a stagnant, boring place.
