All Of My Dreams Are In Paper. (Song) Poem by Colette Grosvenor
All Of My Dreams Are In Paper. (Song)
To dream you have to have your eyes open,
But mine have been closed from the start.
When I was young my friends dreamt of princesses and fairytales,
Wheras I, I had no dreams,
I was the dreamless little girl.
All of my dreams are in paper,
I have no real one to live out.
I know they will never come true,
So why live in a fantasy?
Just to be let down.
At least with paper you cannot be dissapointed,
Just put a pen to it, and write it all down.
As time goes on, I hope to have dreams as i sleep,
And have something to live for.
But i doubt that time will come because...
All of my dreams are in paper,
I have no real one to live out.
I know they will never come true,
So why live in a fantasy?
Just to be let down.
I know I am different,
from the rest of the world.
While they sleep and dream,
I sleep and die.
I am dead to reality.
All of my dreams are in paper,
I have no real one to live out.
I know they will never come true,
So why live in a fantasy?
Just to be let down.
All of my dreams are in paper,
I have no real one to live out.
I know they will never come true,
So why live in a fantasy?
Just to be let down.

Hello Colette: Your poem voices the same appeal of nine-tenths of the young people on this site. When you say: I know I am different from the rest of the world. Actually you are experiencing the same depth of lonelyness of those of your age. In your poetry, I see promise and structure, so in that way you are different from the rest of the youths around you. In your attention to spelling and grammar, you show a training that is sadly lacking in the majority of those who aspire as poets on this site. I would like to see you branch out of self-absorption and turn your talents onto other subjects. your poetry will gain greater depth and you will find alleviation for the insecurity you feel.
