Who said 'I wish this poem was pixie dust'?

Answer 1

I Wish This Poem Were Pixie Dust I wish this poem were pixie dust

To throw into your eyes

And make you see the loveliness

Beneath my sad disguise.

And I would take you in my arms

And weave a magic spell

That I could utter anytime

To make you love me well.

But alas my simple words

Are like summer rain

That drums on hills and fields and hearts,

Then vanishes again.

And though my love might make you bloom,

You turn with fragile grace

To gaze in aching loneliness

At someone else's face.

We lust for what we cannot have,

A long, unbroken chain

Of lovers who remain unloved

And loved who love in vain.

While I'm near mad with wanting you

As trees must have the sun,

You cannot help but find a love

Who loves another one. ~ Nicholas Gordon
