Obscurity

Living a life in the shadows, seldom unseen and more frequently forgotten,
Pondering the life I lead, introspective and seeking reasons I was begotten.

Fragments of who I am and what I’ve become I find easy to give it all away,
Desirous of relating far deeper than the surface and touch lives in many ways.

Yet, often as is human nature, most will forget- so consumed with the mundane,
Self-seeking rather than far reaching, it seems we forget who healed our pain.

Lessons learned, there is safety among the shadows- no expectations, no strife,
Yet insignificance is a predator that stalks, for living in the shadows- is no life.

Your poetry is so pretty. I can only write short stories.
And they don't aren't all that good.

Why do people have to die?
To make life important.

Rest in peace Caroline. we love you.
whatever you do KEEP writing them. Writing is always evolving. i write poetry, and am working on a screenplay. i would be in heaven if ANYTHING got published. I don't want any money...just to know someone is reading them :)

To know oneself, one should assert oneself. Psychology is action, not thinking about oneself. We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly, we should die. ~ Albert Camus, 1913-1960
