Subject: Rossetti Dream

This poem was inspired following a recent visit to the major Rossetti Exhibition at the Walker Art Gallery, where so much passion and pain was laid open for all to share.



Rossetti Dream

My memory recalls your love
resting close to your breast
seeking more than pure desire
now my soul is far from rest.

Wandering in a waking dream
realise it could never be
life is nothing but broken glass
wanted only you to love me.

I cannot sacrifice for you
what is left for me to give
perpetual torment is mine
but will you ever me forgive.

I have but a hopeless heart
desires of frustrated pain
I may paint a smile for you
but may never laugh again.

Keep your arms around me
together we may sleep
leave me silently my love
alone for you will I weep.

But if you me really love
then let me know my dear
without you I only exist
but for you would reappear.

I desire your passion
you are my Rossetti dream
come to me again my love
once more make me scream.
