Dreams, and reality

by ellewen   May 5, 2007


All around us
light flourishes
time beyond me collapses
as I turn to you
vanished memories reappear
the sound of your voice
a sweet whisper echoes
melodious tones
harmony I have found
in the memory of your touch
like a shadow it creeps through me
beside and beneath
withered footsteps
accompany the sound of breathing
among us
someone is near
like a weed we arise
like a breath i escape
like a dream i am not real
like the apple that wasn't sweet
a taste so common yet we all seek
like the rain I continue to fall
out of the dream and against the wall

(this was a 5 minute thing, and I was extremely upset by one of my dreams. I know it has no rhythm and no scheme, or stanzas, but i think it is worth reading. just don't remind me.)

    I was so wrapped up in the flow i did not miss the rhyme scheme, as i have said many times i envy that skill. The poem was enjoyable, and so worth my time. the depth olne deserves an excellent rating

    Wow. now this was pretty confusing for me, but still it was so beautiful even though i did not understand it very much.
    when i read the title 'dreams, and reality'
    i was anticipating something much different, but this was brilliant. even though there wasn't any sort of structure or rythm really too it, it had a certain flow to it that made it one of the most wonderful poems i have ever read. (i'm not kidding)
    it doesn't seem very sad too me though, just sort of sweet, but 5/5

    At first...
    I was unimpressed.
    It seemed sloppy
    But when I actually read the bottom
    About it being only for five minutes
    Then I was impressed.
    I wish I could talk about my emotions
    As well as you just did.
    Well done, m'dear :]
    5/5
