My Wonderland of Nightmares

Stretched as far as the eye can see

A desolate place where I can simply be

Leave me alone for I'm spread to thin

This place is my sanctuary within

 

 

I've got to find a way to appease my Gods

Without them I couldn't beat the odds

I've longed for a love that is everlasting

Though sometimes the pressures can be exhausting

 

 

Want to find in myself that inner peace

Want to rest in a land where there's no disease

Help me if you can because I'd like to understand

Is there anything I could do to meet every demand

 

 

Nothing is what I find when I seek outside my mind

This wonderland of nightmares is my favorite kind

Let go the past and dream of the future

I am your student and you are my tutor

    Well there is no doubt about it, you have a pretty interesting rhyme going here and I personally enjoyed this poem because it makes me give deeper thoughts about things that i have bypassed in the pass.

    Bravo

    What a wonderful piece of poetry you have written.
    The imagery and rhyme is in exellent form.
    The Picture and Background are mystically vivid
    And you write with such expressive thought.

    unique take on the prompt... refreshing to read that. the last line i liked... seeking help and learning from others. that's a hard thing to do. and i appreciated reading your author's notes... a personal touch, making the poem itself take on a deeper meaning.
