Watching
Waiting
Gazing silently at the horizon… listening to my heart
All my thoughts escaped
At peace
All my thoughts escaped
But only for a moment
For they shall return
They shall come flooding into my mind
Harkening to my soul
Bombarding me with feelings
Regret, longing, memories, failures… want
I see it
Where I envision myself
I feel it
My Soul waits in confusion
Two lives
Two desires
One pure
One tainted
My soul waits in contemplation
It doesn’t know what to feel
So much has simply passed
time
dreams
thoughts
knowledge simply slipping though the mind
landing on the wings of an angel
she waits
arms reaching to entrust the moments lost
“your answers”
she waits
I get tired of looking
The horizon so far away
Of all my wants
Of all my searching
I want to be complete
I want to be one
Mind and Soul
Letting the ego go
Yet it is so far
One must travel the endless journey
To meet the horizon
This journey
Is life
And life
As the horizon
is infinite
Let us live
Journey to the end of the world
It may be far
So far
It may be
Let it be
Beautiful, true poem. You have captured the way I feel at times, wanting to belong but not sure where. But it is just part of life, and as you say it is infinite. I’m sure we all feel this way from time to time. We just need to keep moving on to the horizon.
~Eric S~ Welcome! Thank you for your thoughtful comment… We all want to belong… the secret is we are right where we need to be… it is only our souls who wish to be free… yet we need to live the lives we chose… perhaps… perhaps this is it… let us keep on our journey toward the infinite horizon…
This is our journey. Heavy burden it seems sometimes. But the angel has infinite patience and infinite love. We are not moving too slowly – we are moving exactly as we should. And what treasures we are finding down here in physical form – jewels and gems we can take back to the angel one day. We have a purpose just as we are.
Beautiful poem, Enreal. It aches with yearning 🙂
~ zenuria~ you know all too well… beautiful thoughts my friend… thank you

This reminds me of Jonathan Carroll, the fiction writer.
All I could think of while reading this was “The Wooden Sea”, a book he wrote years ago, a rambling, mysterious and beautiful novel.
This post IS a novel.
Incredible stuff.
Almost too much to take in on a first read.

ps. thanks for all your visits. I do so appreciate them.
~ michael~ you humble me… thank you… you have been an inspiration to me…
Thanks for the feedback. I ALWAYS read other peoples work after they comment on mine. If they take the time to read my thoughts, they deserve the time given to read theirs. I now understand why you like that one though. You have a very deep thought of mind and write about things alot of people think about daily… If not, they should. I’ll keep writing if you keep reading and vice-versa. THANKS AGAIN
~shady~ welcome and thank you for sharing your light…
THANK YOU ALL… the light in here is so bright and full of knowledge and beauty… I AM BLESSED …
