Lifes REVELATIONSA Poem by Legacy
What are we searching for – where does our yearning lie?
I am not quite sure, I have the feeling I am destined for something bigger than I... (I know THIS - what I am becoming). I don’t intentionally provoke immorality... But why then, do I welcome it with open arms? Why do I enjoy it so? Why…, (What I have desired for so long) -A place I could feel safe, call home is anything ‘but’… In life, there comes a time when we must ‘stand and recognize’! I’d like to think I’ve earned this right, paid my dues if you will... I have managed to hold my own, infusing with-in - what is right and wrong... I know who I was and what I am becoming... Are others exempt? Put your hands together as you look to the sky... For years gone-by, more than I would like to remember ‘I have done just this’… Where have YOU been? Why do I feel YOU have forsaken me like the rest? I have believed in you when others have not. Have I been ‘dismissed’? Auspicious signs will then reveal, Hmm~… this indeed, they do. Beware though… not everything appears to be an open book. Life is ambiguous… even-handed it is not! Open to interpretation – how true is this! No apparent objective – it depends on how you view life. Unfair and cruel – THIS I am all too familiar with. Don’t inspire with apprehension, I do not have the luxury of encouraging fearful expectations. We might have one – forcing its threshold... I’ve had the drive to push forward for so long. Why now… am I giving in, giving up this fight? True is this - boundaries are only as we imagine them. - Love and compassion a vital quality Interesting traits… do they really exist? Purity and Innocence, a distinguishing feature... Forsaken me - these have done. Life has a path ‘to each its own’. To claim it as mine… this I do not choose. Ours dreams lose their way, To say I’ve had them once – I guess in ‘goals’ I did. Legacies ‘somewhere’ have become obscured... Does such a word or belief still exist today? For this is the 20th Century - People are not here for their names to stay...? © 2007 Legacy © 2008 LegacyFeatured Review
