| Category - Emotion | | A Poem from the The Heartbeat of One Drum Collection | | The Fog Turns into Haze - Viewed 481 Times | David Devaney

February 05, 2007 |
Sometimes in life we are estranged
Though no one is at fault
And love is not the reason why
It can’t be sold or bought
Reflections in a mirrored room
Show only ego there
And pride and also jealousy
Which bring to us despair
We wander aimless through our time
Uncertain what the course
Depending on another’s lead
Our id is not life’s source
We think solutions might be found
Within this world we know
Yet far too often we do fail
And life does lose its flow
Then to the desert we must trek
Now lost within our mind
With each solution near at hand
Though seen, to them we’re blind
Internally we lose our way
The fog turns into haze
And only when the dark night comes
Do we ourselves amaze
Survival is our only path
To find the one we are
For when no answer comes our way
We seek a different star
Deep within our inner self, our psyche and our heart
We taste the strength and energy
To better courses chart
Then those we care for most of all
Are once more by our side
Allowing us to recognize
We need no longer hide
Then last and most importantly
We must ourselves forgive
With tragedy now in the past
A new life we can live | | © 2007 David Devaney |
