If only in a dream.

by Jenn   Apr 24, 2012


Running in a marathon,
Searching for something more.
Pacing my body, but can not pace my mind.
For my mind is in a dream, no a nightmare.

No... a dream.

Blurred, watching in third person.
The vast abyss I approach..
I do not slow, even though there's no where left to go.
I leap.

Diving into nothing... I am free.

Falling, tremor down my spine.
Sun can't reach me now, but don't worry I will be fine.
I'm embracing this cold, into my inner core.
Numbing the senses, wanting nothing more.

If only for a moment...
If only in a dream...

    Wow.. this is intense, and so well-written. Again, the punctuation is placed where need be, making the whole piece alive and giving the imagery a kick.

    "Falling, tremor down my spin."
    spin--spine (?)

    Overall a really amazing write. 5/5 :)
