Array ( [sid] => 104327 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Under Your Bed [time] => 2005-08-24 18:18:52 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Keep me in your dreams
In your long lasting sleep
At a tiresome dreary drop
Keep me in your thoughts
Place me up top

Young days
So many more counted on
So many bolts to mount it on
Stay focused
This is what I counted on
An ugly duck becoming a swan
Stay steadfast
Till the moon sets on the dawn
Careful which stars you wish upon
One false blink and you’re done

Keep me locked in your room
Under your bed
In a closet barely tall to fit my head
Locked and abandoned left for dead
Marked for birth but miscarried instead
Watch your words they may be interpreted
In ways you never meant
The days you never spent
Reflecting on your biggest regret
Contemplating
What else, but your death

And with that new life
With that a chance to do right
Crushed into a perspective
Relatively nothing new
Nothing so huge, as who created the sun
Or who painted the sky blue
Or who new the next line
Before it was written
Before a premonition
Set out alone on the expedition
Your demon is caught
Staked
Artistic exhibition
And with that new life
With that chance to love
Comes indecision

wow...this poem is so powerful and the imagery is beautiful. Although there is no specific rhyme scheme, it flows very nicely. I can't believe how many people read this before me that didn't comment. Anyway, great write, keep it up!

Ahhh a new day, and suddenly I understand this poem: )
Well, I won't touch on it. It's your own personal thing, and being indecisive can be tough. I do however like the crafty way you imbedded your emotional struggle in your well chosen words though...I'm pretty sure you could be much more than just some trinkets in a memory box if you so choose: )
