Epiphany

I dare to dream
to know thyself
failure is not
an option

I stand as
splendid witness
on lifted wings
soaring ever higher

A question of time...
A moment in time...
pause...
before it's over

The essence of silence
flame of life
blessed are the days
before me... 

Author notes

This is not a new poem, however for the past few months i've been unable to post a poem here at AP using the pw option, so i've been copying and pasting w/ explaination in author notes.Some setting on my computer which i'm sure i don't understand. This was written for a contest here at AP about poem titles. I found this quite challenging as in the beginning it was just a jumbled mess to me. Placing them in a sensible order drove me nuts for about a week. I hope it does'nt feel too cliche' or forced.

    I plan to revise this poem: please leave constructive criticism!

    Your first group does feel cliche, but the rest of them are fine. I am surprised you were able to fit things together so seamlessly. Thanks for entering.
