what it is

what it is

A Poem by Oh, Andrea
"

i really suck at titles..

"

 

tell me how you dream of me and i'll dream of the way i want you to.

in a way which elevates itself onto a pedastal, gleaming boldly with vivid color, but with the innocence of a photograph in black and white.

a way that it seems as though soft music, carrying the ambience of a thousand summer nights, weaves itself within my hair much like your curious fingertips.

i stand in pleasant ambiguity. the scenery dissapates. all that is left is me, as if i had danced my way from some part of your heart to this image behind your tired eyes.

but then i begin to find myself with these dreams of you, so unlike any dream whose waters i have drowned in so many nights before.

because with you
i have finally caught my breath.

Beautiful imagery.

I would love to go with the title that Arthur has suggested below. However, I cannot be too sure whether I would actually like introduction of the "You" at the dawn of the poem. Personally I feel that it disrupts the flow a bit. Again, it may be an essential word, given the revised title ... :)

Let me know what you think, Hope you was ok with me adding the word you to the beginning of your poem.
trying to help you out just a little.

"Because Of You"

You tell me how you dream of me and it'll dream of the way i want you to.

in a way which elevates itself onto a pedestal, gleaming boldly with vivid color, but with the innocence of a photograph in black and white.

a way that it seems as though soft music, carrying the ambiance of a thousand summer nights, weaves itself within my hair much like your curious fingertips.

i stand in pleasant ambiguity. the scenery dissipates. all that is left is me, as if i had danced my way from some part of your heart to this image behind your tired eyes.

but then i begin to find myself with these dreams of you, so unlike any dream whose waters i have drowned in so many nights before.

because with you
i have finally caught my breath.


you have a good poem going here.
