    Poem Commentary

    A FEELING FOR CHANGE IN ONE'S LIFE .YES THE POSSIBILTY ALWAYS THERE

    A TIME TO RUN AWAY

    A TIME TO RUNAWAY

     

    TIC, TIC, TIC, TIC

    IT’S BEEN SO LONG A TIME

    ALL THOSE YEARS OF HUSTLE

    AND NOW MY BODY AND MIND

    FEELS AN EXTREME FATIGUE

    FROM ALL THOSE YEARS, TODAY MUST CHANGE

    SO ALL THOSE FUTURE DAYS I CAN CHANGE

    I NEED TO FEEL THE BUOYANCY

    I NEED TO RECREATE LIFE

    I NEED TO REJUVENATE

    ALTHOUGH MY EYES DO NOT SEE LIKE THEY DID BEFORE

    I CAN SEE MUCH MORE THAN EVER BEFORE

    ALTHOUGH MY MIND IS DRAINED

    I CAN SEE THE NEW AND MANY DREAMS TO COME

    ALTHOUGH MY HEART BLEEDS AND IS BROKE

    I CAN FEEL MY HEART OPENING AND BECOMING WHOLE AGAIN

    STILL TIME ALWAYS TIC’S AWAY

    LIKE DREAMS THAT LAST FOREVER

    NEVER DESISTING

    MY TIME SEEMS TO OF BEEN SO LONG

    BUT YET, MY TIME IS VERY SHORT

    SO NOW IS THE TIME TO RUNAWAY

    SOMEWHERE NEW AND FRESH

    SOMEWHERE BUT HERE

    WHAT I WAS, I WILL NEVER BE AGAIN

    I WILL BE SLEEK, AND STIMULATE MY SINS

    I WILL TAKE STOCK IN MY NEW DREAMS      

    I WILL BE ME, SCRUPULOUS

    I DON’T HAVE TO RUN AWAY ANYMORE

    I DON’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT TIME TICKING AWAY

    I can relate to many parts of this poem. Especially the feeling of ones body being fatigue from all the years of hustle. Ones eyes not seeing as they use to but now have the ability to see more than I did before. The need to rejuvenate and recreate ones life. And having a bleeding and broken heart, time seeming so long yet is so short. Please keep cranking out your works with such feeling. Kyma63

    THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ THIS POEM,I'LL BE CHECHING YOUR POEMS

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
