Take Me There

Take me to that place
Where everything is exactly as it seems
Where reality is planted in the soil of souls
Where fantasies exist beyond dreams.

Take me to that place
Where hate has no place to to call home
Where poverty is a word without basis
Where loneliness is a stranger who is always alone.

Take me to that place
Where trust can never be broken
Where love is exactly what it says it is
Where joy speaks without a word spoken.

Take me to that place
Where emptiness is never a state of mind
Where hopelessness can only exist yesterday
Where fear runs away leaving courage behind.

Take me to that place
Oh please help me find it somehow
For my mind is growing cold and weary
From living in the now.

snap snap...

yes please take me there!

The line about lonliness being a stranger always alone.. absolutely genius.

Dani, you spark a flame of hope here... yes there is the frustration felt.. but hope of hearing such good things, that they can be. Since we grow so tired of the redundance of our lives, the constatn battle to make 2 steps only to be taken back 1.

A great piece of writing Dani. Sometimes, it is nice to think that we can escape the pain of the truth in the world isn't it?

Dani
This poem, again I have to add
it to my fav's as
it's well written and something
I can identify with
as if to plant a seed of hope
in the soul of the soul
watering thoughts with intention
to grow in the heart beyond measure
I see how this poem
reflects the longing to escape
to find moment in solace

So grab their hand, sqeeze it real tight, let them know that you really want to follow and go with them and they will take you there. Dani, this flowed very well and seems to be very dream like, a wonderful write.

Good job. I wrote a poem like this a year ago, I should post it. I love how you repeat the title, "take me to that place" and you use it as the start of every paragraph. Repetition always good, and cements it in the person's mind. i think you are good. i'll read the other stuff you got.

It's like you've read my mind... I too would like to find that place... A truly well written piece.

Can I go there with you? I too am tired with the negativity of mankind. This is beautifully written and hopeful.
