Blissful Dreaming

by Megan   Dec 23, 2007


Its one of those days where i don't want to leave my room
but i feel trapped and claustrophobic in it.
I'm scared of the world outside my little box, yet i feel the undying need for exploration
i want to know whats out there,still to afraid of the knowledge it will bring.
I'm curious of the possibility of mistake, but it is terrifying thinking of the humiliating pain and sorrow i could obtain, once again.
once bitten twice shy? isn't that what they say?
i feel an overly tightened attraction to that tiny phrase.
sometimes i just want to lie here drawing, or writing, or sleeping, or singing!
other times i want to spread my glory worthy wings and fly!
but what if they become tattered and broken?
I'm overcome with the idea of them growing and expanding ten feet wide! flying so high! above everything, i look downwards at the life below. peering atop the billowy soft clouds. but for now i will stay sheltered away from my ghosts and haunting dreams. far away from my fears
always wondering..

    I'd like to start out by saying that I absolutely loved this poem. I understood the meaning behind it, and I can somewhat relate to the thoughts. I love the fact that you put so much thought into it.

    There were some suggestions I'd like to make.

    "I'm curious of the possibility of mistake,but it is terrifying thinking of the humiliating paid and sorrow i could obtain,once again."

    **I wasnt sure if paid was supposed to be pain? but there should be spaces after the commas.

    "I'm overcome with the idea of them growing and expanding ten foot wide"
    **foot should be feet because it's plural.

    "i look down wards at the life below"
    **down wards should be combined because its one word.

    I hope you don't get mad that I critiqued it, but i give the overall poem a 5*5
