Redemption

Show me something beautiful
Guide me along your streams
Lift me into the mountains
Reveal to me your dreams

I've been trapped too long here,
Inside my frozen mind
Unearth my will to live again
Give me something to find

Disclose to me a masterpiece
Pry open my eyes
And show me all the loveliness
Through the world's hating disguise

Too long I have spent sealing
My dreams too long dismissed
I see it's time to wake again
For my mind's eye to exist

I'll stop to smell the roses
And learn to love again
I'll catch up on all that I've missed
You need only tell me when...

    The meter of this was a little sketchy, and the rhyme scheme was nice, i'm not really a fan of ryhme, over all the was nice but thats it Nice, it need something surprising for the reader to really bring it out ouf the category of bland, and the title is not one that catches the eye, try using a metaphoric line-phraseand a little puctuation couldn't hurt; commas are much need, but still the poem was nice

    i really like this. the rhythm is kind of soothing the way it just repeats one pattern throughout the poem. nice rhymes as well. thanks for entering!
