Comfort Horizon edit

[Richard]

Hey CRNDLSM,
I find this poem starts off with some wonderful intrigue. However, some of that intrigue gets lost because some of the images/thoughts here need to be developed more. I'll go into more detail below:

Funny what a little information can do,
reflecting me for you,
receding from view
the me you thought you knew. -I like this first stanza. I'm not a huge lover of rhyming, but the rhymes work here. Plus, this stanza created wonderful intrigue for me as a reader, which made me very interested to see where the poem was going to take me.

Although I'm sure you've always known;
the light had shown
a seed overgrown; -After the first line, I find I'm not super clear on what this stanza is trying to tell me. The seed is especially troubling as an image because you never come back to it. I get the feeling the seed here represents more than it is, but I'm stumped on its meaning (plant pun intended ).
a dagger cutting through bone. -This line made me think the speaker might be some sort of murderer, but I don't see how it goes with the seed image from the previous line.

The comfort is on the horizon. -This is a nice line. It sums up how watching a horizon can make one feel, or even expresses the idea that better times are coming.

What does anyone have to gain,
to welcome pain, -What pain? I feel like this is a point that could be expanded on.
to seem insane
at the risk it's all in vain?

The future hides behind a glare,
but once you're there,
it's all laid bare.
The truth is love will lead to despair, -What love? Again, I feel like this needs to be explained more.

but the comfort is on the horizon.

Discovering your destiny,
reality
reflects it you for me.
Funny how we can agree to disagree. -This last line made me think that may be the speaker is actually someone in a relationship that has gone awry. Perhaps they were too honest about something, and that ruined the relationship. If that is the case, I would suggest fleshing that idea out more because it's an interesting idea, and I feel like you could say more about it.

Overall, I think you have a great first draft here. My main suggestion would be to expand some of the ideas in this poem. I look forward to seeing where you take this poem from here.

Cheers,
Richard
