Cloud Of Ecstasy Dreams

Come roll with me on my cloud
of ecstasy dreams
where we realize the world
is just as it seems
and the beauty of life
is that it is a free for all
and visions of heaven
will always catch us
when we fall
no dancing rainbows
of colors unseen
no being stalked by
a leprechaun feign
this cloud of ecstasy dreams
a soul opened a little more
mind whispering answers
to, "what are you here for?"
and it's not an escape
just an adventure for one night
that helps you realize in life
there is darkness then light

    Thanks for your comment. In response to your question, "No being stalked by leprechaun feign" is an inside reference to one of my friends who tried acid a long time ago and saw some very -weird things. Thanks much for the read hope that cleared it up for you.

    Has Potential

    It's not bad... I'm sorry to say it's not one of my favorites, but it's not bad. There's almost a meter, enough of one to make me want more... Some of the rhymes seem a little forced. And what does
    "no being stalked by
    a leprechaun feign"
    mean? It confused me a little. However, all that being said, it has potential. The imagery is pretty good, and I like a lot of your word choices. Keep writing... I want to read more of your work.

    Very sad, yet hopefull at the same time, a hard thing to do. Well done!

    "and visions of heaven

    when we fall"

    excellent words here!
    to me, it made me think of someone not caring about the consequences and just taking the chance, or, not taking the chance...
    it seems to have many meanings...
    like saying whatever...if i go, i go...i believe in Heaven

    i dont know
    im weird
    but excellent job!
