MY MIND'S LITTLE THEATRE

MY MIND'S LITTLE THEATRE
by Dreamy Poetess
 
There’s a story inside my mind;
It’s been with me for so long.
But fate has not been kind,
Though I even composed a song.
 
And in my life there is no choice.
I must endure, survive.
And so I restrained my voice;
I work each day to stay alive.
 
Yet the story went on for years;
My mind became a theatre.
I wrote my poems through tears,
Though it was hard to keep the metre.
 
And so it never reached the surface;
My mind, a tiny production.
Its star wears my own face.
My little story set in motion.
 
I began to write, and it grew into a novel,
Yet I’m unsure what to do with it.
But I love it; it feels so well-woven,
Though I’m its only fan, my ideas are lit.

UNBOUND VERSES: LIBERATION OR DISOBEDIENCE?

UNBOUND VERSES: LIBERATION OR DISOBEDIENCE? by Dreamy Poetess Once I believed I was a lyrical verse, Constrained and structured, emotions rehearsed. But now I've awakened to a newfound truth, I am a free verse poem, unrestrained and uncouth. No longer confined to rhyme and meter, I dance on the page, a poetic heater. Free to express, unrestricted and bold, Unfolding narratives, untamed and untold. In moments of despair, when giving up seems near, I wield my pen, writing thoughts crystal clear. Crafting unsolicited advice, a gift to myself, A guiding light, to retrieve strength from the shelf. Through ink and paper, I find solace and release, As my inner voice whispers, offering peace. In the act of writing, I navigate the storms, Discovering resilience, where hope reforms. So let the words flow, in their unbridled form, For within this free verse, a sanctuary is born. Embrace the freedom, the flexibility of thought, In the realm of poetry, liberation is sought. Image, generated thr...

UNBOUND ARTWORKS: LIBERATION OR DISOBEDIENCE? by Dreamy Poetess Once I believed I was a painted canvas, Constrained and structured, emotions rehearsed. But now I've awakened to a newfound truth, I am an abstract artwork, unrestrained and uncouth. No longer confined to rules and symmetry, I dance on the canvas, a vibrant tapestry. Free to express, unrestricted and bold, Unfolding narratives, untamed and untold. In moments of despair, when giving up seems near, I wield my brush, painting thoughts crystal clear. Crafting unsolicited strokes, a gift to myself, A guiding light, to retrieve strength from the shelf. Through colors and textures, I find solace and release, As my inner voice whispers, offering peace. In the act of creating, I navigate the storms, Discovering resilience, where hope reforms. So let the art flow, in its unbridled form, For within this free expression, a sanctuary is born. Embrace the freedom, the flexibility of thought, In the realm of art, liberation is sought...

THE ART OF MY DREAMS

Image
THE ART OF MY DREAMS by Dreamy Poetess   It's not about the metre, nor about the rhyme, That matters when I sit, dictated by the time. And it doesn't matter if I don't share the line. It's about what comes out when the moment is mine.   When thoughts continuously come after another, I couldn't help but write, my mind's full of wonder. Emotion, on its height, expands even greater, Although poems don't end happily ever after.   I am not good at using highfalutin words. I'm struggling with diction, the same way as with chords. Writing was hard for me without seeing the boards. With no models, my thoughts run on different roads.   They say for a writer, everything has a sense. You need to have that weirdness, and thoughts will commence. Emotions magnify, as if you have a lens. Then start to write them but be careful of the tense.   It doesn't matter how many stanzas are there, For it's my way of letting my feelings lay bare. It is where I put my joy ...
