Random doubts

as the title suggests this is just a description of a few questions that arose in my mind during a monotonous flight.

Who do you think I am ?

 

A friend you can trust

or a fiend, avoid whom you must.

 

Whom do i believe in ?

 

The almighty whose existence I doubt

or the loved one who yields a clout.

 

Where do I come from ?

 

This established community and clan

or the gypsies and hippies who never plan.

 

What do I want to be ?

 

Another guy caught in the rat race

or the artist who slows down life's pace.

 

When will my time finally come ?

 

Before I live the moment for which i always crave

or after the pathway to your heart is paved..

This is penned well and from time to time we all have questions that run through our minds. Wondering who we are to other people and who we are to ourselves. We also question what we should do with our lives at different points. You have penned some of those questions and it this piece has a hint of frustration in it which is usually felt when we aren't sure what we are to others and what we want to do.

Questions asked thru contrast....somewhere between the darkness and light lies shadows looking to comfort

this is one of my favorites of yours so far! The answer, I believe, is "B'", the artist who slow's down life's pace! I love that! Good for you, dear. this show's depth and growth as a writer for you. Well done :)

There are times in life when we sit and think then, think some more. I truly believe if we listen as hard to our own puzzled thoughts, just as we listen to other people's, we find answers .. so hope you do. Your post seems full of doubts and concerns, but my friend, they're lost in the past and can't be altered. You know, whilst we look back at night, we're not enjoying day's warmth and brightness.

Fine writing here. Keep faith, find strength ..

I have always had Gypsy blood in me. I would want to escape before the bed got too warm. A poem with many good questions. I believe life does give us direction and possibilities. A wise person chose his path wisely. I like the final lines. Sometime the only peace we can find in a life is true love. Hard to find and when you have it. Need to be kind and hold on tight. A outstanding poem. You made me think.

like steps that move from the beginning through the center to the final call~ well developed nuances carry the reader along on an almost wave like fold of consciousness~
