Crushed Dreams

by Allison   Nov 14, 2007


Sleeping Beauty lying down,
Eyes closed in a sleep.
Snow White hiding in the forest,
Terror running deep.

Ariel the little mermaid,
Walking on the land.
She chooses not to see
All the horrors that are at hand.

Tinkerbell and Peter Pan,
Spinning through the air
Looping, soaring, and diving
Living without a care

All our childhood fantasies,
Move on before we're done
Turning to face away from us
Shattering our hopes like a gun

    Abstract, but intruiging. i like it, it's very original. definately can identify with losing all the magic of childhood and this poem describes that well. especially when talking about mermaids and peter pan. i rank this 5/5
