Rubber Ducky Poetry Hour

[PoeticWitch]

As I lay myself down to sleep
I wonder what might I dream tonight
Of far off lands
And strange beasts I have never seen
Of my daily stresses
And all the bills I have to pay
I want to dream of a ship
A ship to carry me off
To worlds only imagined
Where princes and princess truly exist
And magic is a daily occurrence
So as I lay myself down to sleep
I pray that I dream
Of love, light, and laughter
To dream as if I was a child once more
To believe that miracles still happen
Lets leave the mundane world
Where it belongs
And let my dreams be dreams

[PoeticWitch]

Do you dream..
Of what has come and gone..
Or of what has not yet happened..

Do you dream..
Of silliness and laughter..
Or of darkness and terror..

Do you dream..
Of planets and stars..
Or of beaches with waters so blue..

Do you dream..
Of clouds so fluffy and white..
Or of storm clouds raining on your parade..

Do you dream
As I dream
That some dreams might come true

Words on the screen
So hard to read
The meaning behind them
On any given day
Let alone at 4am
I would rather be in bed
Dreaming of pleasant things
But instead, I am awake
Lamenting about
Words on a screen
To be true
These words mean nothing
As I don't know you
And you don't know me
So why the hell are you getting so
Butt hurt over a few words on the screen

Oh how I want to be a kid again
To feel footloose and fancy free
To have imaginary friends
That lead me on adventures around the world
Without it costing me a dime

To dance around with total abandon
Not a care in the world
To be amused by the silliest of things
Because of my wild imagination
And not be judged as insane by the many adults

Sometimes being a grown up is totally over rated
I just want to time travel back to being a kid
Where things were simpler back in the day
But instead I will dream every night
Of being a kid once again

To love with my whole heart
My heart not yet tainted by bitterness
To live one day at a time
Because as a child
Tomorrow was not yet a reality

Oh to be a kid again
What I wouldn't give
To be a child once more
To think my parents knew everything
And that the sun rose and fell on them alone

To believe that all fairy tales are true
And Santa Claus kept a list
The Easter Bunny laid colorful eggs
That my birthday and Christmas
Were the best days of the year

Oh to be a kid again
I wish it was true
I never wanted to grow up
I just wanted to be a Toys-R-Us kid
But alas time moves forward

We grow up if we want to or not
But deep down in my very essence
My little girl waits
For a bit of freedom
Once more

[PoeticWitch]

Insanity binding the mind
Mine or yours?
Lets join these insanities
Give us a bit more room

Demented thoughts
Floating in and out
Of this head
That keeps the insanities contained

O'come all ye crazies
Lets join hands
And minds
Together we can get everything we need

As individuals we won't get far
But together
A being of one mind
We might get the help we want

They are fools to be sure
To think insanity rules our lives
To not know what we need
We are not babies having a crying fit

So come all ye crazies
If you are tired of being dismissed and ignored
Come join hands with me and mine
We will show the way

Some form of normalcy
A little bit of the mundane
This is what I want and need
So give me the damn meds already

[PoeticWitch]

Here I have something for you
Sorry I didn't have time to wrap it
Something special
Something only I could give you

It is fragile so you know
So be tender
So be kind
It cannot be replaced for any amount of money

It is a little messy
A little squishy
But remember
To treasure it always

What is it you ask
Well it is something so very dear to me
I want to give you my heart
My heart and no one elses

Please don't break it
Or stomp on it
Because if did it would stop beating
And I would die

So be gentle
So be kind
And remember most of all
To treasure it always

[PoeticWitch]

I know you are down
Sad and frustrated
A total grump
On this fine day

Come with me
For a walk in the clouds
My wild imagination
Will lift you up higher

Stop frowning my love
Why not smile
What will it hurt
To put a smile on your face

I love you
And I know you love me too
So let me wrap my love around you
And lift us up higher

Come take a walk with me
In my wild imagination
It can take us anywhere
If you but trust me

Put a smile on that face
Take my hand
While our love
Lifts us higher
