Br OkeN DreAms
I was on a walk with two of my friends tonight.
As we were walking I was talking with one friend "Patricia" and we were talking about opening a bed and breakfast in Ireland, and saving up so we could start a bakery/antiques/bookstore and meet a nice Irish man in a band.
My other friend "Jahosephette" said that something will get in the way of our dream and we won't be able to make it.
I walk alone. I walk alone.
I am not heard. I don't know how to be heard. Nobody helps me. Nobody notices. I dream of everything. Everything crushes those dreams into shards of broken glass.
I walk alone. I walk alone.
I see the birds and the bees everywhere I look. I see glazed eyes. I see achievements. I see smiles. I see posers.
I walk alone. I walk alone.
The sky is falling, chickens run. Mist blocks the mountains. The mountains block my view. Something will come along and shatter my dreams, like my achilles heel.
I walk alone. I walk alone.
Doubts are placed in my head. Who do I turn to?
I walk alone. I walk alone.
I see green moores, I see grey fallen stone. I see sheep. I see cobblestone streets. I see pubs. I see beards. I see huge bodies of water. I see people in love staring at the Eiffle tower then gazing at their lover. I see hopeful people tossing coins into a fountain. Hoping to find that lost dream. I see ruins of the ancient world.
I am alone. I am alone.

ReplyDeletevery decent writing. Also very depressing. Mighty fine job!
ReplyDeleteI loved the line,"the sky is falling, chickens run."!!!! :) pretty much loved the whole thing, but especially that line:):):):)
ReplyDeleteWhat a weird beginning, but, you know, I think I liked it. It was really... Real? It felt like actual thoughts instead of a poem. Loved it.
ReplyDeleteI liked how the beginning kinda gave more insight, by showing different sides of you. :)
ReplyDeleteI like your hidden symbolism. You walk alone but you see the birds and the bee's.... you're a virgin...
ReplyDeleteDespite what everyone thinks, I too, am a virgin. A proud one at that.
Well done Psyck
Doubts are placed in my head. Who do I turn to? i love this line because its the truth. i love how you wrote this and instead of making it into a poem of such you told it like you were speaking to someone. great job
ReplyDeleteWicked writing. I did love your description and the way you created the images. Also I like the way you added desires that you can't accomplish. Well done keep it up.
