I Dream

I dream i am the holder of beauty,

I dream that i am the angel everyone wants to love,

I dream that I am the siren call that you can not resist,

I dream that I hold all power,

I dream of strength,

I dream that reality will fall,

I dream my dream will take hold,

I dream that you will love me,

I dream that you will notice me.

 

But my dreams never come true.

This is really heartfelt and quite enjoyable. My only critique would be to go through and take out some of your "that"s. Most people don't realize they throw them in there when they aren't necessary, and they can really mess with the flow of both poetry and more formal writings. Great job though, I liked it a lot!

Beautifully flowing, in form and vision. So bittersweet in the end. Could feel the heart of your words...

In the wise words of Langston Hughes, "Hold fast to your dreams." We all have aspirations and hopes for the future... like you said, many of them will not come true. This piece was delicate and very gentle... the word choice and the flow was flawless. Great write. Kudos.
