Loving is Dreaming
John Boyle O'Reilly
1844 to 1890
Life is a certainty,
Death is a doubt;
Men may be dead
While they're walking about.
Love is as needful
To being as breath;
Loving is dreaming,
And waking is death.
John Boyle O'Reilly's Loving is Dreaming
I am busy working to bring John Boyle O'Reilly's "Loving is Dreaming" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about John Boyle O'Reilly's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "Loving is Dreaming" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
