Dreaming of a Distant Land

Dreaming of a Distant Land

A Poem by MusicLove93
"

Not sure how to describe it..it's about dreaming of a happier place.

"
As I take this pen in hand,
My heart is dreaming of a distant land.
A land of hope,
A land of wonder,
A land where darkness cannot plunder.
And as my heart so dreams,
My hand is busy drawing wings
So that I may one day fly
Before my withered heart does die
From all these secrets I have kept
And all the tears I have wept.
In this dreamland, there is no pain,
No secrets, lies, or love in vain.
Only hope,
Only love,
Only light, shining from above.

Good. I think we all have a place like this. Somewhere...
the rhythm is off in a few spots, for example:

Only hope,
Only love,
Only light, shining from above.

there seems to be one too many syllables or something in the last line. I think it would flow better if it were "Only light from up above"
this is just me being picky. it really is a great poem.
Excellent work! Keep writing!

And we hope that land is not too distant --if only we shall look inside and dream. Nice!

You're damn good. Such a beautiful poem and handled so well. Some may comment on the rhyming scheme, but, to be honest with you, as a casual reader I find it a wonderful piee to speak out loud. It lends itself perfectly t a graveld voice. Wonderful.

Heart doth die just a suggestion as this is a truely emotional poem allowing your feelings to flow as easy as the ink you pen with. I love the ending it pulls the whole piece together, loved it. Keep em' coming

THE RHYMING IS AWESOME, THE CONCEPT IS INTERESTING, AND I THINK WE AS POETS GO TO DISTANT LANDS IN OUR MINDS. I KNOW I DO. GOOD WORK
