Fall From Grace

Realisation flocking to your heart
As our love begins to suffer
Like the birds I fly from you
For this place you call reality
Causes too much suffering
The world is but a place of pain
Where the children cry before they see
And everyone dies alone
You pushed this reality upon me
But you forgot to ask me
I'm not who you want me to be
I prefer my beautiful insanity
Where time slows to a halt
And thoughts of the dead lay to rest
No wars yet no love
I cannot comprehend this place
Where the people wear a smile
Yet scream at me with their eyes
You don't understand who I am
Or what I wanted in life
One last kiss for the road
I'm sorry to disappoint you my love
But the suffering is too much
And too many tears have been shed
Let me fly away to the greatest heights
Where my make believe is true
This world was not designed for me
So watch me fall from grace
With but a sigh of remembrance

    Great imagery. =] It was quite beautifully written, with such a sad topic. Excellent write.

    Imagination...if only our dreams could be our reality.

    Quite a beautiful poem you've got there. Slight typo-- "
    I'm sorry to disappointed you my love" should leave out the "-ed" in "disappoint." Otherwise, very good!
    Good luck in that contest.
