Beyond this little house,little city,wonder awaits for me.
I dream of living a magical life,
Filled with castlyes,princes and dragons.

I look up out beyond the stares and can't help but think this isn't the life for me
I dream of living a magical life,filled with dark magic and love.

I walk the soft sanded beach and wonder what wonders could await below the sea.
I dream of living a magical life, filled with mermaids and talking sea critters.

When I awake in the morning
I realize that beyond this little house and city,
wonder awaits for me,
But until then,
I'll just have too live in the moment.....

Castles and stars are spelled wrong. Besides that, It's a nice poem.

Good concept, although the poem itself could definitely be improved. I like your descriptions of the places you dream of living. My favorite stanza is the last one :)
