Truth

Contributed by The_unknown on Thursday, 17th March 2011 @ 10:05:49 PM in AEST
Topic: selfstruggles



Fire afoot
I touched the golden hand

I grew infinitely out of my being
And realized
I am still my past
You couldn't destroy a soul faster

From the clouds above and the fiery rock below
I have no place to call my home
So can I taste the air of a better mood?

I tell you, I walked with giants
But still my mind sits in darkness

I flew on the wings of heroes in the sky
Still, I couldn't fly forever

I battled monsters
But they still lurk in the shadows

I learned the meaning of love
But I can't explain it

I saw the flaws of humanity
Though never could I change it

And I fought my tragedies
But my life is still tragic

Fire afoot
I touched the golden hand, but
Where does one go from here?

I had a mushroom trip like that once, a long time ago.

Where do we go indeed. I guess we ought to just go on trying to be what human beings ought to be, whatever that is.

One reading and I am in love with this lovely poem. It is a gentle thing -- yet it says a lot. It doesn't need over-powering strength to tell its tale -- sometimes you can say more quietly... and you DID. Great job! --FlintHunter
