Rahsash Geldich Posted January 15, 2002 Report Share Posted January 15, 2002 I am balanced on the rim of the world- The world as you know it behind, The world noone knows ahead, On the rim, I stand perfectly aligned. Fantasy is ahead, giving me insight To my well of creativity and lending Me a getaway when I feel that negativity Is all anyone has been sending. Whenever I reach into it, my balance Waivers- So I am left outstretched, Not wanting to reach too far and fall To hit the Rim and never be catched. A wind sweeps up from behind, pulling Me backwards into reality, but I refuse To budge from my post. I will not abandon One for the other, as both are there for use. I am balanced on the rim of the world- Positioned for happiness, I stand Willing to wait to let each show me Ways to go without any demand.

Ozymandias Posted January 28, 2002 Report Share Posted January 28, 2002 I'm not much of a fan of poetry, Rasash, but yours I like quite a bit. You're very good at painting intricate pictures with simple, yet important messages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peredhil Posted February 5, 2002 Report Share Posted February 5, 2002 C.S. Lewis said that the only ones who hate Escapism are Jailors. It's a delicate balancing act indeed, but it's possible to be real and yet find the creative fantasy in life. It needed be like a light and its shadow, for one only sees the umbra when one's turned their back to the light. Rather find the glory in the veins of a leaf, the beauty in the tears of a child, the music of rumbled voices slightly out-of-focus in a classroom. Be aware of every day wonders... -Peredhil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reverie Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 So saw a honor guest looking at this post, so I gave it a look myself, and decided it was worth bumping. Come back someday Rahsash, you are missed. rev... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
