Bigger Pictures

Bigger Pictures

A Poem by Savannah Bly
"

Seeing bigger pictures and the human effect.

"
Bigger Pictures
"Just stop. Relax."
He said
But I can't
I am too close to it all
I see
Bigger pictures
Every side
All emotions
Trying to find the humane
What are we
But bodies of souls
Calling us human
Nervous
Complex
Strangers to ourselves
Brightest of days
Darkness in nights
How do we define human
Understanding worlds
Understanding people
Trying to understand the "me"
"Just stop. Relax."
He said
But I can't
When stories are left untold
Emotions unseen, left to dust
And reason is left to power

maybe that is why it is so hard for me to relax...there is too much left to understand...too much undone and untold...too much to do...
is that a poet's life?

to define human?

such an insightful piece of writing, that raises many questions for the reader to ponder.

I think we can never just stop and relax. Anxiety and curiosity is what feeds us, I think. This poem represent, in a way, that hunger we have for knowing everything. Thought it was very refreshing :)
