On My Way

A Story by Lizardo

I'm on my way

I'm on my age

So young but so full of clouds

Without a house

I strive to fill the empty cup

That love left at my bar

Everyday was a war

But war is gone

We both parted ways

They agreed to shut up

So they did

They haven't tormented me since then

They haven't chained me since then

I understand, I finally understand

That love is about being who you are

It's about you not about any other person

I tried to survive society's vision of love

But I failed miserably

I finally understand

What the actual meaning of love is

So mind as well go to the mountains

And climb as high as I can

So that the villagers don't find me

And try to bring me back

Love isn't a piece of leather which you used to cover loneliness

Real love means give full love to yourself

Not love people who hurt you

It's hard, yes its hard

Everyday I sit with him

We play chess

Who ever claims victory first gets full control over me

But how are you going to win against yourself?

Now, I'm on my way to full recovery

My mind is the debris of a fall empire

But God was good with one his sons

So he made the thoughts shut up

It's time to rebuild and be reborn from the ashes of my fallen thoughts

Like Phoenix before the morning comes

A new act of Democracy for us and for him a new way of life for both of us, for the three of us

First article in our constitution states the following:

-Loneliness isn't sadness, it's wisdom

-Real love means loving yourself

-False love is what other's make you believe

-We'll play chess on the afternoon, they are gone thanks to God

-We are happier and better on our own, in God we trust to find our Real "EvoL"

-Darkness has retreated out our space, so we're finally Free

-Never use the word "Love" since society has made a bad used of it and in the wrong way too, we'll use "EvoL" Because it's love backwards, its the Other side of the mirror of the "Love" that Society and everyone has created and believed in.

This is a rather mixed-up series of statements and theories about love and not love. I know you say it's encrypted with many meanings, but most of them are lost on me. Especially when you are playing chess. Are you playing chess with Death? I'm sorry I tried but can do no better than that. take care...dan

So much in this one piece of work. As for finding and knowing love, good luck. Even now I question it's meaning as my love, due her culture does not use or feel comfortable with the word love.

But her actions show the love and care she has for me. No words are needed.

Sounds like coming out of a very bad time and you are on your way. Congratulations and well done for that and this work.

Self-love is an important part of growing up and being yourself. It is a hard journey, one I am still on. This poem captures the struggle and the hope very well. Great write!

I like it a lot! Society has changed a lot of things including the meaning is love. This poem is truthful and sincere. I'm still trying to figure it out although I do know you pretty well because you're my best friend:) Wonderful piece, Lizzy! Stay safe and I'll tell you if I figure out the meaning anytime soon :) take care and happy holidays! Keep calm and write on :)
