where was it written?

[NeverMore]

where was it written
the lonely would understand
when the stars that shine so clear
would themselves be alone
who was it that said
there is always something more
around the next corner
on the other side
yet still the silent shadows
tell of something there
in the smallest part
of such a tender rose
the perfume of life is sweet
is there yet enough light within
to see one sitting there
and was it when as children
we played at hide and seek
then we learned the little folk
did not have a pot of gold
there came a time to understand
to unlearn so many truths of life

This is about life and acceptance that fairytales do not always come true. (This is my interpretation of it...excellent poem.)

[NeverMore]

I thank you for your comments on both poems *S* I do not know about soul mates, they are something I believe in yet, have to wonder. I have been lucky in an extrodinary way and maybe I have grown spoiled by it. I have been very well understood by more then one in my life. Perhaps shall be again, one can only hope. I do have to sort of disagree though. Ferrytales do come true, but they take hard work and believing in someone.
