Chaotic World

About the worldeive in!

The world passes us by,

neglecting to slow down.

Hearts are full,

waiting to be harvest.

Self absorbed people, to busy to listen.

 

We hunger and thirst to be accepted,

to be liberated from evil doings.

Our bodies are like an ocean

ebbing out to shore, then back out to sea.

We sink beneath sorrows.

 

Tribulations surround us,

filling our souls with misery.

Tranquillity is lost among the chaos.

The world has stolen everyones peace,

it's like a poisonous  disease,

trying to fit in, to be something we're not.

 

We feel alone, worthless, unvaluable.

Our longsufferings are neverending.

We want to vanish somewhere in time,

stop the clock and live alittle.

Live our life styles more bountifully,

and wake up from the whirl wind of this world.

 

When morning comes,

peacefully now the light of day.

Arise, gaining new strength.

Small groups thinking and talking.

Filled with selfrespect.

Dreams being dreamed.

Slowing down and taking a breath,

Knowing the world will always be a cave of wonders.

This is a great poem, we all need to slow down and take the time to live a little!
Trubulation sourronds us,
filling our souls with misery.
Tranquillity is lost among the chaos.
The world has stolen everyones peace,
it's like a poisonous disease,
trying to fit in, to be something we're not.

Love that stanza, but you brought out so many good facts in this poem, the imagery is excellent!

It really can become a whirlwind, but we can choose to be in the moment....and with practice it gets easier. But it is easy, as you say in your poem, to lose the tranquility in the chaos!
