The Circumvention

Contributed by omarzz on Saturday, 30th October 2010 @ 01:33:30 PM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems

Better watch where your thoughts are bound
For some places should never be found
Brought to die alone
Leaving this and them behind
No time to atone
To reach what you're born to find
Is there room to choose
Is there really a fire
Is it all to lose
Is it all that dire
So if that's the way it has to be
Then that's the way it is
If only through the desert I'll see
Then it is what it is
So the oasis spoke and taught
Soothed my troubled mind
Put perception to what I thought
Gave what I tried to find
Sang to the depths of my being
Cleansed my stained soul
Showed me what's worth seeing
What's worth dying for
So here's how it goes
One dies.Life flows
Here's how it ends
No choice.No amends
So I've known skies
Lived in lies
I' ve worshipped seas
Got high on trees
I've fought in vain
In self inflicted pain
I've sinned and smiled
Prayed and cried
I've seen mountains.I've seen bays
I've dreamed of brighter ways
I've loved and lost
Sought quality at all cost
I've danced on a moon lit cloud
Made some cry. Made some proud
So I'm not a saint.I'm no angel
I'm not a demon, just a stranger
A stranger in my own flesh
And I'll soon fly
Up to a shooting star
When you thought I'd die
Now when I leave once and for all
How will I be remembered
Who is gonna break my fall
Who will pick me up and show me the way
Timeless times and I could stay
So this is my story
My tale of miniature glory
Within I found happines
Without a beautiful purgatory

A life full of experience on both sides of pain and beauty lets us walk through life knowing what every aspect feels like. Wandering a path not knowing what lies around the corner. Profound and well done.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
