Poem Commentary

Wrote this while sitting in parking lot waiting on Sam to get out of class LOL and she helped me with a few lines Enjoy...

Old Vs. New

It's Cold
It's Empty
It's Unexplored

I go to take a step out into this unknown
I retract my motions for my thoughts wander out
touching,feeling things i can not see

It's Quiet
It's Lonely
It's Terrifying

I only hear the sounds of my breath
but I can hear others in my thoughts
where is this place I have awaken?

It's Dark
It's Deserted
It's Solitude

The others  sounds I hear are in fact my own
I'm trapped inside my mind
in this everlasting existence

Where is my Light?
Where is my Warmth?
Where is my Mind?

Things seem to fly in different directions
all i can do is sit and watch in amazement
as i come to realize i have shed my skin
and have awaken this new form that i still
have yet to understand

I can see the light!
I feel the warmth!
I can hear my thoughts clearly!

very impressive. like a snake sheds its skin, you have gone from one person, into becoming another.

Can't believe that you wrote this while waiting on me to get out of class...It's very good...Keep up the writing...Told you once you opened up your poetic mind there was no going back...Welcome to the poetic side of the world. Sam

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
