Our Place Is Not So Special After All

Our Place Is Not So Special After All

A Poem by Outdated Account

I found a place
To meet my dreams
Under a weeping
Willow tree.
Warping light,
A beauty
With the flashing
Breeze.

By the bridge,
By the stream,
By the frigid
Oaken beam
A rock lays
Drowning;
Exactly where
I left it.

Recall the days
I spent before
I dreamed I ever
Dreamed for more.
I slept to wake,
Not to see,
The impossibilities
I could never be.

Months that passed
In a single night,
Lives I spent
Just to die.
Where was that home
I dreamed,
Where I lived and loved,
And was redeemed.

A place long past
And drowned in clouds,
That billow
Like fog.
That place
Beneath the willow
Was no place,
After all.

I found my mind really pondering and identfying wtih the meaning behind your words. Hmmm. Seeking to release the reality within my experience and how to express it is work. This was a very interesting a thought provoking write; intriguing. thought provoking. Thank you very much for writing this.

Wow, that was beautiful!
I really appreciated that peice!
It was well written and very deep, I can't assure you that I'm the best person to listen to because I am no expert at poetry, but you amazed me!
The only things I would fix are probably a few things that are out of beat and some verses that don't rhyme. If that was intentional, feel free to correct me. I am lost when it comes to poetry, haha.
