Where I may repose in the quiet and feel wholly
Serene.
This place is the place in which all comes together to one
And that which does not is no matter because it will all
Heal with time.
A place to be at place in,
To belong and feel connected
To an ideal extending past your own existence,
A concept that ought to be a tangible reality
But all I find upon my search is floating away
Effortlessly.
Running underwater, I cannot retrieve what I hope
Whether I close my eyes and ignore the difference in solitude
Or whether I mold myself with indifference to the difference
If only to be somehow in the right place, at the right time.
When all is transient and untethered,
I can enclose myself in the shadows of my mind and wish to be
Home.
This poem is kind of a metaphysical description... definition?... of "home" and then a few bits about missing/wanting one.
ReplyDeleteI like it. Its a good way of describing those first few feelings in college.
