In All My Seclusion

by Laura   Sep 19, 2005


In all of my seclusion
Thought I was sick with delusion
But I have come to the conclusion
This world is full of illusion

For nothing in life is what it seems
My only escape is in my dreams
Where I am living by a higher means
Life plays out in consequential scenes

Then it is back to the crude reality
Where humanity is living savagely
Staying alive is a challenge to me
Not locked behind bars, not living free

    I agree with Jason, the rhymes and flow were great. You really did evoke emotion into this poem, and it was good. It was short, but really deep. That is indeed life, sad huh?.. Good poem!

    Excellent work girl. I've come accross few poems with a ryme scheme like this that convey real emotion. Yours does. The rymes didn't seemed forced but flowed into the next line. I really like the way you ended it.

    "Staying alive is a challenge to me
    Not locked behind bars, not living free"

    Again great job.
