I would like to thank all the wonderful people in the world who know how to take criticism/suggestions.  I am keeping rushdelivery's comment in my poem "Time" to remind myself that I never want to be like him.


List of things I want to do before I die:
1) Visit New Zealand
2) Learn Elvish
3) Learn French
4) Buy a horse and learn to ride it WELL
5) Live in England
6) Find out how the Harry Potter series ends
7) See the movie "The Hobbit" (if they ever make it!)
8) Visit Italy
9) Become a prima ballerina
10) Perform on Broadway, or, since that's not realistic, be a STAR
11) Be part of the solution to destruction of the environment
12) Live to see better international relations/better national leadership
13) Find my soul mate and marry him
14) Discover who I am
15) Truly LIVE, for once!
16) Finish high school without burning out
17) Finish college without burning out
18) Hell, finish life without burning out
19) Write that one perfect, elusive poem that I just can't get out
20) See "Wicked"!!!! (preferably on Broadway!) "Wicked" comes to Washington in the fall of 2006!!!  I can't WAIT!!!  I totally have my tickets on hold, woohoo!!!!!!



~Inspired by the background~

I wish I could float on the breeze
To a place of unicorns and dance
Where peace and harmony reign supreme
If life was simple
If cares were gone
If time ceased its relentless tick
Would I find bliss?
After all this time,
Am I capable of feeling?

In the domain of unicorns
There are only flowers,
Freedom from obligations
And the only sound
Is my mending heart
And the wind ruffling your hair...
Mist on my cheek,
Your face on my lap
This is bliss

If my dreaming ends
I will feel the terrible world,
Face my pain, my fear
The unknown lurks on the imaginary boundary
Age will overcome me
Grief will kill me further
Inky tears will flow from my pen
Forming words
Chronicling my doom

So I must remain
In the grip of the unicorns
