~this sorta sux but hey i hope ya enjoy it !~ I drift… I drift away Beyond time, beyond a place, beyond people I see only what I want to I look over the hate, the stress, the troubles of life Memories come into mind but they are pushed back Don’t think, do not think While I drift I hear faint voices in the distance, But they only become fainter I see visions, my paradise There’s a beach, white sand, crystal clear water My mind and eyes come back into focus I realize that the crystal clear water was really your icy blue eyes I never drift for long, And I imagine I never will The busy rustling and bustling of life will always catch up So I go along with you Go through another day Just to fall asleep in your arms and dream… But in reality I never dream, I only drift |

I loved this, you have all these very distinct images and those not so distinct images which are left to the readers imagination, good piece of work |

Nicely done. i thought you expressed your thoughts quite well. This drift, I like it. Quite sad, but still. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |
