Take me away with you,
To a place where I can think,
Anywhere away from here,
To a place with water pure as day
So I can wash my fears away
And wish upon a falling star
That someone would take me far away,
From this place I once called home


So what do you all think? Should I leave it as is, or add more to it?

I agree with player... this is a very good poem, but the length could be longer. I like to read a lot! Good writing, though. I liked the imagery and the emotions were very strong.

Most of us go to our grave with our music still inside of us.

Okay, here is my revised version

Take me away with you,
To a place where I can think,
Anywhere away from here,
To a place with water pure as day
So I can wash my fears away
And wish upon a falling star
That someone would take me far away,
From this place I once called home
The skies are glowing the glow of a million stars
Illuminated under the yellow moon,
And the air I breathe is crystal clear
And I’m here,
Living each day with out a care in the world

I love you, I hate you, I can't live without you...
