I'm Nothing

The first part to a two part poem...the second part....I'm Something

sliding into the curve of the road

I'm crashing

hitting the edge only to hit air

I'm falling

closing eyes to an ill fated life 

I'm fading

waking up to a painful reality

I'm dreaming

looking to the stars in the night

I'm wishing

take away all my fears and pain

I'm pleading

a heart to an unseen love

I'm calling

chains binding a slave

I'm crawling

freedom to be

I'm nothing

Everyone goes through the same thing... It's life as we say it. What happens next only depends on what we're gonna do about it... No matter where you go, there will always be a checkpoint of misery on the way... We just have to deal with it... A beautiful poem it is... Nice work...

It is undeniable that human life is filled with change and the feeling that everything is wrong and nothing will turn out well is inevitable. However this is simply a part of being human. We are all entitled to this feeling. But I think there is a lot of things we can be thankful for. We can be thankful that our emotional guidance system is alive and well and is able to nudge us to focus our attention differently. And with that, there is hope and then self healing.

Your poem implies hope and despair.

Good job!

very gloomy poem and the ending is really sad, i feel like that sometimes, but i always remember that we are all unique in our own different ways...

[Serenity Faith]

I most definitely agree ^_^ We are all unique in different ways, it's what makes us....us.....
