The Intricacies of a Daydream -------------------------------------------
My reality tends to
burst at the seams
erupting into arbitrary daydreams
that reel me in
and I protest
but soon I am suspended effortlessly
in space
Reality becomes imaginary
and daydreams become my day
Muscles go limp
and Oh! how I lose myself--
--to glittering forests
--to a contrived romance
--to the intricacies of a true escape
I shift between
altered states of reality
cotton-candy clouds
a bath of tiger lilies
swimming great distances
across cerulean seas
as the sky rains poetry
and I open my mouth wide
and let it fall in
--finding myself to be enjoying
the gloriousness of drowning
in limericks and haiku
and lost loves and personal whims
and connotations and epitaphs
and oceans and suns and clouds and...
This was an awsome read. It describes exactly how I feel when daydreaming. Maybe not the same day dreams as you, but hey.
I think you did an awsome job. I would have to say that my favorite part was the last line. Because it is so true.
This is wonderful. This poem was so much fun to read. This piece was so musical and inviting.
I was right there dreaming with you. I really can't suggest changing a thing about this piece.
I would only suggest making a part 2, but then again many sequels don't do justice to the originals. Anyway, Great Work!
