An exaggerated thought

Just a Draft- I am not this melancholy in reality- A poem to remind me what is important in life. What does it mean to you?

I wish I could spill myself on a canvas

Be another loathing melodramatic fool

Read love poems and watch cliché’ romantic comedies

Find expression in a plastic bag-dancing in the wind of a busy intersection

I often find myself delving into this world

Compelled by my own compassion

Fully aware of it

Surrounded by it

Counting down the seconds-waiting

For this time-bomb to explode

Slapping me with the stern hand of reality

Well written poem for a working progress. It's straight forward and very emotional. I like it.

This seemed pretty intense. I liked the line about the plastic bag...this just had a sense of actual reality to it, which is what I believe you meant to do. I really like this...you did a good job

I was drawn to your line about finding expression in a plastic bag dancing in the wind of a busy intersection........something that is very important to me personally. Here as of late I have found it hard to find something joyful to be inspired by, so your poem touched me deeply.
