the false prince

- a dreamy piece........

The false prince

 

I am no prince

Nor I am of royal blood

 

There is just nothing more of a dream

I wince of meaning to be someone

That person was never me

 

The crown I once wore,

I thought was forever meant

Temporary was I all to be

Shame on me

 

I kept running from the storm

Hoping to evade what fear had brought

Now facing what I fear the most

A reality slap

     to wake up on this lovely nap

 

Once I was a false prince

     in a dreamy fantasy pretense

 

Now I thought I was a walking dead

All along I was asleep on my bed…

I used to think there was a little prince in all off us guys. until i looked in the mirror and saw me. No that mirror is broken as i shattered it with my fist. wanting to take the pieces and tear the very flash off my face, and stub the monster i see. Too this day i no longer look in the mirror knowing the prince that used too me is no longer there. So i no know this poem. i know the feelings behind it. I know the dream well, because its my true reality.

Really deep thoughts her Sir Pax...the melancholy emotions were deep and I felt it...which is a good thing, because that's what you wanted to convey...I really enjoyed your exploration in your introspection...you will overcome your doubts as you build your confidence more....I see great things in you.

[Babe Roxx]

You will...never be afraid to fail...I've fallen on my face many times...you learn...you get better...most important try or read different styles other than your voice...you may pick up something. ;)

You are most welcome, Pax.

i do like this...it's like the dream could go either way...we can be the prince or demon...

we can be anything we want within the dream but the reality is that we wake up to who we are...

[Pax]

its a wake up call for me, thank you so much my friend...

[Marie]

Pax, I think you could easily be a prince, with your talent and sincerity. Never mine your blood; it's just circulation...

[Pax]

I believed it is Marie... thank you always...

I like your dream alot and I commend you for facing the reality of this life. Status , fame , fortune are temporal but they can be eternal if they are rooted in love and justice and human compassion where they leave a lasting impression and outcome on others. A prince or a king is just a title unless he wins the hearts and minds of his people and bring equality and justice to the people. Otherwise he is a puppet to power and selfishness...A splendid read and write...:)

[Pax]

people with great intellect shines... you are one... this was an experimental piece, I admire your highly perspective my friend... and i believed what you just said is true...
thank you my friend...

You inspired this one...:)

[Pax]

A prince or a king is just a title unless he wins the hearts and minds of his people and bring equality and justice to the people....that is so true... that one is a insight of leadership... one that knows where he stand, not for fame but to the hearts that he have touched(helped)....

[Sami Khalil]

Wow. Like I said Mr. pax your poem inspired me to say that ...Wonderful...:)
