a poet journal

 a dream
in visions of the dark night
have dreamed of joy departed-
but waking dream of life and light
  hath left me broken-hearted
ah ! what is not a dream by day
 to him whose eyes are cast
 on things around him with ray
turned back upon the past ?
that holy dream- that holy dream ,
 while all the world were chiding
 hath cheered me as a lovely beam
a lonely spirit guiding.
what though that light , thro' storm and night 
  so trembled from afar-
 what could there be more purely bright
 in truth's day-star ?
Edgar Allan Poe was an American author, poet, editor, and literary critic, considered part of the American Romantic Movement.one of the most greatest writers in the word , i really think he's the best (no offense for the others ) but he is !! .
for a girl in age of 17 i started reading his poems and tales for like .. what three years !? .. and every time i hold the book or open an ebook for his work my heart goes in unconscious phase ... it's like another world .. a world of my own ! .

feeling every word , every line . it's amazing how poetry make me feel , it's neither realty nor fantasy ! .

 poe's most recurring themes deal with questions of death, including its physical signs, the effects of decomposition, concerns of premature burial, the reanimation of the dead, and mourning Many of his works are generally considered part of the dark romanticism genre .
his writing reflects his literary theories, which he presented in his criticism and also in essays such as "The Poetic Principle". He disliked didacticism and allegory, though he believed that meaning in literature should be an undercurrent just beneath the surface. Works with obvious meanings, he wrote, cease to be art. He believed that work of quality should be brief and focus on a specific single effect. To that end, he believed that the writer should carefully calculate every sentiment and idea .
in simple words EDGAR ALLAN POE is eternality human being through his tales and poems .... speaking of it !! ... i leave you with this poem i wrote , hope you'll like it enjoy :
 MY CHOICE 
 he saw me with fully eyes
he saw me with smiles
he knew i'm hurting inside
he knew i wanna change , beside ..
i never included satisfied ...
i wanna be wild with others outside..
i wanna be the one you love with out terrified .
i wanna be the one ,
the one you choose
the one you lose
i want you to be the heart i  DECIDE .
