Drifting Upon Waves

Endless is eternity  

when you drift upon waves

of dreams unrealized

and whispers of a life

that could have been,

but this long road

is endless no more.

I know my reason to exist.

I found haven within the pen,

and I will drift no more.  

The road is not broken,

but whether I still walk alone

or found company in strangers

sharing my dream,

I will not fall

through empty sleep

and troubled thoughts

because clarity

has opened my eyes

to the window

of time.

I will not spend

my dreams in lazy hours

but live as I dream.

 

Drifting Upon Waves

Hi Melissa - it sounds to me like you've had some sort of epiphany occur in your life. Whether this is just a simple realization or something more profound, perhaps only time will tell!
Most of what you have to say is very direct and the last few lines are indicative of somebody who has lived through a 'significant emotional event', which takes me back to the epiphany statement...i always enjoy your poetry but I think that you know that already.
