Picking up Paper and quill Yielding my emotions To my hand's will Burning up within Feeling so afraid Afraid of what the morrow may bring And the choices that must be made A dark well inside of me In which I fall so deep Secrets hidden in musty corners From prying eyes to keep Slowly lighting anger's flame Kindled by my loss of control It burns so bright within me I try so hard not to let it show This road that i have chosen Is my path in life Mostly I love each moment But at times I war with strife The perfect this, the perfect that To some this is how it may seem But they're not alwayz there To see the nightmares I dream Midnight has come to this house And as the lantern is blown out I lay aside my daily armour And ask my angel what it's all about She smiles in the dark and touches my face Tells me she's not quite sure As sleeping babes in other rooms Dream of candy adventures As I'm drifting off to sleep The dragons in my head Drive a broadsword through my mind Causing the waking world to become as dead Drifting in a fairytale I am made to realize The beauty of our daily life Is in the beholders eyes -Thomas A.

For sure I think this one would look great in the book! Excellent poem Thomas, you outdid yourself once again. Keep it up  Waves...amazing hey? Wind blowing over smoothe ocean water creates shear. The longer the wind blows, and the futher the fetch, the more energy gets transferred from the wind to the water. What started off as a breeze 1 000km away, ends up as a glass-faced barrel at some far off beach. |

Beautiful poem Thomas. I especially liked the last line. I took it to heart. This poem gave me a different perspective on day by day challenges in life. Thanks  Love always, BabyGirl1 "We are each of us angels with only one wing. And we can fly only by embracing each other." -Luciano de Crescenzo- |

"A dark well inside of me In which I fall so deep Secrets hidden in musty corners From prying eyes to keep" -- I understand this so well, Thomas. Deeply moving and powerful words here. Very well written, I shall be looking for more!  *Krista Knutson* "We are not seperate from spirit, we are in it." ~Plotinus~ |

I've been so touched by other work of your's that I'm not sure that I can call this my very fav or your's, but I'd like to. It's somehow inspired me to try to have a better day tomorrow...thanx. Jeremy "Time is the matter, and in a matter of that all wounds will heal and all scars shall fade." |

Dragons in my head, I love that. Everyone seems to always think that everyone else has it so easy, but then again, everyone goes about in the days armour as you say. When the armour breaks down is when we see the real person. loved it dude. jason  |
