Description:
Corner of my mind
Everything I enjoy in my life takes me away from reality I go into my own corner of space, where all my worries wash away Everything that carves away at my heart is gone for the moment I love those moments, though they last quite awhile, they cannot erase the past, for the past replays itself constantly in my head Maybe its not reality I hide from, maybe its the shadow of the past following my every move in the present I keep looking back over my shoulder at my shadow and I keep falling down the cliff in front of me If the sun did not shine tomorrow I could overcome all obstacles and raise my head up high, but the sun still shines and I still fall Can people truly be happy in life without escaping to an illusion in their head? I once thought so, but now I'm not so sure... The moments I enjoy are important to me, they are the commercials that come on during the reruns of my past, they shock my heart into a feeling of warmth, they make my life worthwhile... |

| I think we all need "corners" in the mind...creative ones, such as this write comes from there, other corners we tuck away loves, experiences, passions...it's like drawing a book you have read and it causes you to remember...people..places...experiences from our own past...least when I read this work Kelly it sent me to one of my corners...reflecting...we all fall...feeling incomplete...circling sometimes though life at difficult times. I really liked the style and the way it brought me into wanting to read more. ~Alan | Posted on 2005-09-27 00:00:00 | by MidnghtScorpion | [ Reply to This ] | hey I use to live in fantasy world, I still live there and I will always stay there. cuz the "reality" is too cruel so I need a place to escape. | I like your style it is very unique and it is always hard to find an original idea but your idea is very original. your wording is very good. Maybe its not reality I hide from, maybe its the shadow of the past following my every move in the present I love these lines. keep up the good work With love shabnam | Posted on 2005-09-25 00:00:00 | by shabnam | [ Reply to This ] | This sounds loads like me! I love the comparison you have put in with commercials and your mind. It's really fantastic. Keep this up and you'll go far! | | Posted on 2005-09-25 00:00:00 | by ChaosSubmission | [ Reply to This ] | dont ruin from your fantasies and your own little reality... it's waht makes you unique. i created an alternate universe as a child that I lives within for years. Now as an adult I may not live there but I visit often enough to fuel inspiration and creativity in my life... your fantasy land gives you the creative outlet to write incredible poems like this... dont ever run from your dream world... but dont live within it either. find a happy meadium and embrace your little vacations! | talk to you later, Ella | Posted on 2005-09-24 00:00:00 | by stormyskye | [ Reply to This ] | |
