Description
Confused...Whirling, twirling, dizzy
motion sickness...
Goals, hopes, aspirations
fly past me in a dizzying
dance of dreams...
I see them all at once
through eyelids cracked
from squeezing them shut so tight...
Try to grab them all
but hands come back hollow
as dreams/life passes me by...
Pick one, stalk...wait...
Strike at a dream, grab it, hold it
Razor edge cuts me to the bone...
Release back to the swirling storm
from which it came...
Scarlet drops of shattered dreams flow...
Hang my head, beat my chest
scream in silent agony at everything/nothing
Begging for just a moment of peace...silence...
Purpose...but finding none.
::End::

Another poem of simple despair to be thrown into the piles. Though, good effort.
And now for the Deviant cliche 'Keep it up!'

as painful as it may be we all suffer the scars left from grabbing at dreams but it is human nature to dream and to try and grasp them and bring them into reality. we are willing to bare heart and souls and endure the pain just on the off chance that the dream may come true
nice work look forward to your next one
words mean nothing without emotion ....show some heart write a poem
