I stand alone this night,
Singing my heart to the wind.
I wish upon this star,
Hoping to see you again.
I hear you call out my name,
A single voice lost to the wind.
Even as my heart does cry,
Even as the world keeps going,
I sing my heart out to the wind,
To see you again.
If I saw you this night,
Then I would know for sure,
That my heart belongs to the wind.
I stand alone this night,
Singing my heart out to the wind.
I wish upon this star,
Hoping to see you again.

I agree with E.J., a little too repetitive, but I see what you're trying to do here. That aside, I think your vocabulary was great and overall it was very beautiful :) great job!

I am just so sorry that this is so confusing! I was just so excited and just know that I "really" liked this.

I usually use a forum when I collab with people. So, you can make a forum! And haha, that's alright.

Okay! I'm working on a sample chapter now. Is there any other way that I can contact you so that we can trade the chapters back and forth to incroprate the various elements together?

No, thank YOU for all the lovely compliments and such. Absolutely! Just let me know what you were thinking of and I can get on it.. and how wonderful! I have never had anyone use my work as inspiration for their own.

This poem was very nice, and sounded beautiful. For me, it got too repetitive. Repetition isn't a bad thing in peoms, but I felt that towards the last lines, I was just reading the same thing over again.

Thank you on both accounts! The novel idea that I have is actually based off of The Valley of the Dolls, and I was hoping that you would write some poetry for it.

Such a beautfiul and singular piece..I have read much here and there is a lot on this topic but none so uniquely and sweetly and serenely and silently put forward. I love this poem. Truly. It sings to me and I visualized it all in my head... A scene something read between the lines too..You standing there on top of a cliff, kinda reminded me of Pocahontas' song to in a way but yet it holds it own ground. And then sighing and singing and the wind blowing your dress and you hair whipping and the most beautiful trees, and the scent of mud after the rain, the life of everything around just melds and the vision is alive. This only tells how good your imagery was even though there was little, it was enough to create so much more.  I loved the fact that you repeated the verse too... Beautfiul. I'm happy that I got the chance to read it :)))) Love, Saphira.

OH! I just read a comment you left asking if I would like to collaborate with you on a novel! I think that is a wonderful idea and I would love to!

Hey there! The more work of yours I read the more pleased I truly am. Each time something of yours is posted, I am thoroughly impressed. I like the way you wrote this, it almost came off as a tiny song! You are very good with repetition. You know how to evenly place it and not over-do it. Your rhymes are really good! I love the title.. it seems very pretty to me.. almost like a warm day when that small trickle of sweat rolls down and then the wind blows by and you just know that you are happy right there in that moment. The little things make all the difference. I love the line, 'I wish upon a star'! Great job!

Hi there! Great job! I loved the repetition and all the metaphors. It painted a really pretty picture in my mind. Keep rockin!
