    Poem Commentary

    I am still searching for something to make me feel complete. someone to make me feel that I was already a whole person just needed them to make me realize...

    they

    Missing no one in particular;

    That’s what makes this space feel more desolate

    Yearning for a stranger in a sea full of bodies

    That is when I am most alone

    Looking for a face that I have never seen

    Searching for a soul that I have never known

    Wanting some nameless being to make me feel human

    Panic settles; and so does the dust

    I am old with waiting for this comforting foreigner

    For all that I know; they may never come

    someone was echoing words in a canyon-she told me to make sure they are sweet gentle words because you'll feel their effects! I am sure you'll be just fine with your day today! :)

    Thank you so much!

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
