A Poem by dhoho
"

From a different time in my life.

"
You know that feeling they talk about in books?
When butterflies start fluttering as he gives you those looks?
When all feels right, and before you know it, you're hooked.  
I thought that feeling was fictional; an intensified version of what we strive for but never obtain 
We may feel it for a second, but it never remains
A feeling we seek, then attempt to sustain.
I've recently learned that this feeling exists
When you smile at me, touch me, hold me, my stomach twists
And those fictional butterflies come alive as you kiss my wrists.
Maybe that's why I feel as if none of this is real,
An amazing dream I'm in, which reality may try to steal,
And wash away all those storybook feelings I feel.  
So I'll keep dreaming, I'd rather not wake
And have these feeling ripped away; they're not free to take 
No, I'll keep them, thank you, whether they're real or fake.

Who's to argue the idea of a good fairy tale? I'd think it's better to enjoy the ride, as long as it keeps the Ogres from attacking the castle.

A really nice work of ink you got here!

This is good. I like it.
The rhymes could fit together a little better though.
You're very good at making it work though.
~keep it up~ (:

I'm not so sure about writing, or about having my writing be read. I suppose this is a place to collect my thoughts, and if they end up being read that might be neat. more..
