far from home I slide,
those were days of words
that never were heard,
in the dark world where
you don't care,

on the farside
you be up and I'll be down
life did spin around and around,
those were days of words and fear
capture time in minutes flash
in the darkness,
where giants ruled
paper airplanes,
but there came a giant I couldn't fight,

he was just too strong
he was right and I was wrong,
on the farside you be love and I'll be dought
when my ship came in I was at the airport,

dragons breathing fire
I was many things.

Sail back forwards

On the farside

those were days of words and fear
capture time in minutes flash
in the darkness,

Fantastic write, Nessa. Vivid and captivating images. Thought-provoking. I love your analogies too. You are many things, truly wonderful.

Really Good
It can be so many places in a persons life
It reminds me of some of my dark days

One word-----IMAGINATION.

I believe these thoughts were incredibly unique.

I was going to quote a stanza and then found that stanza one and two I would have had to quote both!

Just the title "Sail back forwards" is so catchy that it has taken over my mind.

Wow.. Once again you have come to surprise me with similarity.. I will stop mentioning that.. But, in my next poem you will notice it too.. Although I think you already have.. Anyway, I liked this one a lot.. I never critique, that is not my place.. But to commend, that is for art and artists.. I commend you...
