Romanticism on the visual arts is so underrated

We need a new Romanticism

Why no Arabian Nights/Jules Verne, OP? Why?

The exaggeration of the problem makes it a problem mostly.

Damn it, Anon, you know it's "appreciate your choices!"

Don't you lie!

I return with addition to the story I am working on - I attempted to work around with some memory, dream-sequence and the whole chopped up movement of words.

Please point out things you feel could be changed and things you like - it helps!

Also, to assist in reading, anything in parenthesis -> ( ) <- is the main character imagining an immediate thought or conversation.
_____________________________

While I stand limber on just one of the distant hills in many encircling me, the elderly shrubs nearby firmly hold their positions scattered among the random patches of mashing dead and vibrant grass. There are bushels of leaves that collect as families below the trees that birthed them on their branch, coating the present expanse in a full-fledged variety of colors with every step forward. How mighty the trees, I imagine them! An unfortunate realization for my own, as my thoughts delved to us dancing in the leaves as they fell from the above trees, standing so majestically tall so to fake their petals like rain-drops.

Now, I envision the trees trapping you – they would sweep along with the wind blowing in quaint spurts, as the gusts that once lead into a violent breeze begin to hush. The day lays itself down on the horizon so the night may ascend to tease the tides, bringing reason to the winds and illuminating your pale form among my vivid forest sanctuary. Under our cloak of night and among the plethora of pines in my creation, my image reappears to seat itself beside your floating hands, rigidly awaiting my own hand to twine with yours.

That sentence is oddly long-winded, as I am seeing now that it has been pointed out.

Though, I'll comment on the "ultimate" thing as I was trying to explain that he had attempted to do this before (the main character, that is), but failed. There is always the POSSIBILITY to create the perfect woman on a sheet of paper, but he's doing it again because he feels like he's overcome past failures.

Though, if this was confusing you, it may need to re-worded. I shouldn't have to explain this.
