FragmentedA Poem by OmarThis poem describes how I am wanted only for a short while, but never truly needed.Fragmented. Used to being used, I am a vessel of sorts. With so much to offer, there are seekers of healing, love, lust or pride in the glory of attaining a trophy. Never celebrated as a whole but rather revered for a part of a whole which is magnified to compensate for the whole. Enter... Exit... Repeat. A new soul, a temporary connection, so pure and so intense like a matchstick ignited, blazing for a short time, however fleeting; I have learnt to appreciate these momentary embers of love for holding on to a burning match too long only ever burns my fingertips. -An occurrence I have known all too well. Now accepted, the truth that the loves and connections in my life are fleeting, intense ignitions of light in the dark, I mostly left in the dark; For once shown the light, my students no longer need their teacher. Enter... Exit... Repeat. A tired cycle, perpetually spinning, however, I am not allowed to become drunk for that would be a gift. I grow tired of the constant inconsistency, however, through it I smile, I pull my shoulders back and walk as though I am floating. Too many depend on the energetic grace I emit for me to drop the vibration even for a moment. Enter... Exit... Repeat. Never fully needed but rather wanted, for certain reasons, favours or attributes. Never needed but wanted; Fragmented.
