Beyond the Mix

The air smelled of a mix
between Death and Daises.
The sky hung gray

as a rainbow peeked through
just above the horizon- too
shallow to be seen by Social Standards.

I walked over
the lush green hillside
and stood in the field of
Red, Purple, and Yellow wildflowers
Waiting.

You arrived a century too late… or
was I just a millennia before my time?
I smelled the Dainty scent of a

wildflower as the sun
exploded- turning my skin
a red hue before
fading away to Calmness.

I picked up the wreckage
and shaped a new life out of the
bright rays, but all was
Transient.

I walked along the empty
roads that led to the River where
all of life had descended.

There I could find no one.
I continued on Alone

through the blinding curves;
never knowing what truth may be
beyond my Grasp.

The Moon rose, but was
darkened to nothing
against the black hole that
once was a vast space of
Hopes and Dreams that

whispered fantasies to the Dreamers,
romance to the Lonely, and
wonderment to the Writers.
All now send out elegant despairs to a
dismantled World.

The scent of Daises lingered
in the air as the
world crumbled further

into a horrible Reality.

I think its interesting.

You arrived a century too late… or
was I just a millennia before my time?

Great line <3

Thanks

I liked it. Good Job

Thanks

Really gorgeous, but I'm curious to know why you chose to capitalise particular words. I can see why you chose to do this with some, but I'm a little unsure about others, especially Reality, and Daises towards the end of the poem.

But I have to say that I thought;
'I walked over
the lush green hillside
and stood in the field of
Red, Purple, and Yellow wildflowers
Waiting.'
was especially pretty; very simple description but it really works.

It's really hard to explain the capitalizations... besides that I want particular attention put on those select words. I can't really explain it any better than that. It makes perfect sense to me- I think for you to understand, you'd need to be me.

Thanks, though.
