'Tis but a dream in the forest of green, 'Tis but a sadness submerged. Nought can be heard of my whispered word For something is coming between. Yes, you can write of the water of life With phrases so buoyant and fine But I stay below and unbearably so; The green world out there isn't mine.

Very mystical feel to this... I like!
the world of life outside these walls is not mine...shivers at the utter aloneness of this...
Such a great sense of mystery...I really love this..
Beautiful...this one is crying out for some music...
Stunning, just stunning!

A super jump-off image
the separation/ distance very well evoked
I always rather like poems that rhyme
what poetry was supposed to do before it got too clever by half....
