Awakening

topic posted Wed, January 12, 2005 - 1:59 PM by  miranda
I have awakened finally after decades of wearing rose-tinted glasses. I see aroud me and wonder where I fit in. I see people all around me in groups of loved ones and friends, laughing and hugging each other in happiness. Do I fit in with those around me? Do I belong with that group, the one running around with the children in joy? Do I even belong in this harsh universe filled with cruelty and lies? Where are MY loved ones at? Where are my friends? Are they waiting for me among these people? Or is the darkness that is steadily coming up from behind me my true home? Should I walk into the loneliness and get it over with so there will be no more questions? Or should I rush from this spot and search for my place among these humans?

    I can relate to this poem myself, I like your style and words you use give a clear description of what's around you.

    thanx for the feedback. I too like your stuff, personally I ask myself these questions alot. what I've realized is this world is a crazy place and i guess my place here is to bring the beauty to others through my actions and my words, it can be very difficult at times, ecspecially when others aren't too receptive of it, but i continue on my path regardless. Thankfully I have a place where I fit in now, but it took a while to find it, I just kept searching and writing about it.
