Question: Just want some more peer editing on my poem!?
So the assignment is just an "about you" poem!. It's supposed to be pretty abstract and I didn't want just anybody to be able to understand it by first glance!. Can you just glance over it and tell me what you thought about it and what you thought my message was in the end!?

Who knows the dreamer!?

Prisms
Shards of light,
Shattering with silent sound and too much and too little color!.
Refractions dance, merrily, wildly, dizzyingly!.
Turn, turn, turn and look before it’s gone!.
Colors!. Colors!. Colors!.
Sound!. Sound!.
Light!.
Blink, and the moment evaporates,
A memory, like catching smoke, sunlight in a jar!.

Dreamer
Of wishes, hopes!.
Worries
Cryptic!.
She hides her true thoughts and dreams!.
Alone
The heat of anger, fear, panic
Disappears with the cool embrace of imagination!.
Fly
Flying
Flown
Away!.

Eyes
Closed, transcend beyond the boundaries of earth and mind!.
For a moment, there is, encapsulated, a world of hazy happiness and blissful delight!.
It is a live being, her imagination!.
It dances, contorts through the alleyways of her mind, and saunters through sunlit fields of far, far away!.

Darkness
But not night!.
She squirmed to escape, grappling with the unrelenting bonds of desperation!.
Lost, blind, straining, fingers outstretched!.
Nails digging into the ground, she was released from the darkness into the night, this a darkness she welcomes!.
Solitariness is a friend!.
Loneliness is no stranger!.
An opportunity, choice has been given, taken!.

Dreams
Haunting, chilling, unforgettable!.
White nightgown, drenched, crimson blooming!.
Bleeding without a wound!.
Death and mystery!.
Again,
Run
Ran
Running
Away down the sidewalk as purple fog curls around her feet, tendrils that can do no more than breathe whispers of death around her ankles!.
Ground disappears!.
Falling
Breathless
Panic
Awake!.

Art
And books and momentary escape from one life to multitudes of others!.
Life! What life a blank page can hold!
Graphite, colored pencils, come to life!.
Immersed!.
Inundated!.
Absorbed!.
Enamored!.
In Love with art
Love
Love!.

Hopeless romantic
And an avid believer of destiny, fate, and all elusive ties of an unworldly nature!.
She finds herself daydreaming, constantly
Seeing beyond the tangible
Floating
Believing!.
But who would know!?

Judged
By what she is presumed to be!. Become!.
But derives happiness from pleasing others,
Like a moth inexplicably drawn to the flame!.
Expectations!. Responsibilities!.

Who knows the dreamer!?

Does anybody!? Does everybody!?

The artistic romantic but yet lonely girl coming of age escaping into fantasies of what could be in her world yet sub-comes to what's expected!.(My somewhat tired interpretation)
