Suman Reddy Poet Imagism

A Better World

Soaring into the blue skies, look down 
The grey myriad of life's endless mysteries
Dreams lost in a sea of deceit
Seeds of doubt sown, look around 
It's too late, there's no saving grace here

A new world, let's build today, now
Scribbled notes, capricious thoughts 
A box of crayons and rekindled hopes

A world where you and I can tell the difference
Between forgiving smiles and constant fears
Stubborn pretence and true acceptance 
And where the colours are infinite and beyond 

A closet of cold disguises and fickle masks is no closet of ours
Let's make way for happier surprises then
And bring that smile back on your face

Ovidiu Bocsa October 1, 2015 at 12:09 PM I liked your inner better world and idealistic great expectations.We may meet in our mutual verses looking for an acceptable world :”Let's make way for happier surprises then And bring that smile back on your face”. By the way :What is the theme of your project? Both English theme and theme of life for the future? Best regards. Suman Reddy May 13, 2016 at 5:04 AM Thanks for your feedback. I don't have a specific theme. My style is mostly dark imagery with an escapist feel to it.
