    Oooh, well done Tim! I'm impressed at how quick this was written, it's outstanding.
    I really can relate to all you convey in this...things will get better I promise! :)

    Now, I'm gonna make your day by telling you my favorite parts of this brilliant poem, here they are:

    "Thoughts of your face have me in tears
    I have not slept in what seems like years"

    "Images that break my heart within
    Roses that suddenly died from grace"

    I also like the two line's you ended this with. Using them twice within the poem really drives your feelings home...awesome stuff.
    It amazes me the good that can come from a bad situation, know what I mean?
    Love ya~Holly

    Wow this is such an amazing poem! You are so talented! I just absolutely loved this poem. My favorite stanza was:
    Depression does not stand a snowball`s chance
    Darkness another villain for whom to dance
    My eyes too strained to correctly see
    The devil at my side laughing at me
    This poem was well worded & the flow & rhythm of it was perfect. Great job on this!

    I like how it leaves the reader thinking about what you did and why you are afraid to dream. It is a mysteriouse poem, and I like that.

    Tim, what a brilliant penned, though sad but well expression within your emotions, No dream would be a dream if it Could pass for something real, Nor would you sail for paradise Would it its shoals conceal. best wishes for you, bert.
