    lol well heres another piece that will probably never get a response but eh whatcha gonna do? this is one Ive been sitting on for a while. I looked at it and realized how bad it actually was(not one of my best pieces lol) so I did a little editing, but I just can't seem to get it down. anyhow any help that anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated. = )

    Icarian dreams

    Oh to soar unbounded,
    beyond the problems of this earth
    on waxen wings...
    to reach the heavens; to touch the sun;
    survive to soar again,

    in slumber, blankets sheathed
    from distant midnight skies
    set my lofty ambitions,
    against laws of logic;

    And the glare, the rusts
    that held me fast, give way
    to flights of fancy...

    a proud indignation,
    glory days,
    waft away.

    prosperity, wealth all but an illusion
    fading as spirits do;
    no reconciliation,
    no requiem sung for the beloved.

    Now boast of pridefulness;
    sins of the hypocrisy do not condemn.
    as you may fly to the sun,
    and nary a wing will burn

    rest
    rest has come at last
    and what was dreamt
    now dreams.

    *Jaw drops* That was, like, THE best poem I've ever seen! Great Job! 10/10!!
     
    *blushes* wow thanks guys, but I still see that it needs a lot of work. This one is on my mind right now along with maybe another one that I'm in the middle of revising, so if I ever produce anything worthwhile in terms of improvements I'll post them here. = )
