I revised this "WIP" and gave to it a name. Any advice and suggestions?

"Haunted Dreams





A soaked covered mattress houses one score,


feathered covered softness shelters the dread.


Wondering if life can take anymore,


dreams of tall soft meadows travel in.


A disconnected gaze upon shadow walls,


dark waters depths not ever shallow.


Crimson red darkness sprinkles Opaque white veils,


death hidden within the center of a flower’s head.


A land of wonderment set before your eyes,


moments of then carried into the future.


Vail’s of awe, and remembered dread... "





Note: This is a work in creation. Would appreciate your advice from title to end.


Thank you.

Hello Sam.





I am intrigued by the comma at the end of line 3. What not full stop? And why don't you start a new sentence with "Dreams of tall..."?


You could use a space after lines 1-2. And before the last line. Just to make them more effective.


And what do you mean in the last line? "veils" or "wails"? It is not clear.


I remember reading another version of this. I really like the first two lines, because of the concreteness of images.
Reply:Sorry, this leaves my mind a blank, your thoughts do not transfer to my feelings, with the opening two lines, yet the rest


is feeling.

to dim the truth of my fathomless sorrow,


my regret at unknown youth.....
