Random

A Poem by Alisa Js

why would you leave
all that is here,
comfortable and familiar
loving and care free

why would you remain in places unknown
after what could be
fell through,
was not.

I don't understand the logic
and maybe there's no logic
when factoring in emotion.
maybe emotion and logic don't mix
but somehow I think they do

on days and nights and hours like these
each time I remember
your smile,
the way your eyes laughed in the reflection of noon
the way my heart dropped
when you drove away

something funny you said 
funny how that only brings sadness now

I still don't understand
why you want to remain,
and maybe I'm selfish

everything you need is here ...

why indeed Princess would anyone want to leave , sometimes a person needs a love of their very own. I know I'm selfish too, love you shiny girl...

~ hello, alisa... this is a very beautiful, poignant and insightful piece of writing... ~ i agree with the way you see a connection between logic and emotions... ~ i don't see the logic behind random behaviour either... and i think that even happiness and comfort (as depicted throughout this piece and especially in your concluding line) are full of adventure... because we find new things to discover with our companions/partners/soul-mates... so it's not as if the random person went looking for adventure because happiness was boring or something... ~ in fact, i think randomness is boring... it's not stimulating at all from my perspective...
