"Its not about being happy,
Its about whats best for everyone"
Someone extremely close to me said these words and
they just triggered off the poem which had been echoing
in my mind since then. Only just got over my laziness
to type it up and put it in my blog. Here it goes...
The Search....
Memories, they never fail to change me
The power of our friendship none could see:
Still the strength to cheer me, to lift
My desolate thoughts, in the face of any rift....
Living in the past, that being safe
Nothing could hurt anymore I thought, as the knife
Twisted deeper and gouged out more
Than I had of me....The heart's the core
Just a mass of flesh beating in tandem
With the brain forcing the mind to be random...
Yet, I continued to fight, to remain the same
The fates contrived against it, making a game
Of beating me down, driving the point home
Change is essential; Else aimlessly I roam.
Tears, long since dead on my cheek
Yet I am vulnerable, unknowingly I seek
My better half; My other half; Where have you gone?
The search for you continues, but I remain alone...
