Drifting me

A poem about a lonely soul.

I’m a wanderer on the noisy streets

No one would even notice I drift

I have feets but I am always free to roam

To roam the street that pities me

 

Carefully I shake off the embrace of empathy

I am one with no one with; no friends nor family

Yet I enjoy the company of the unseen wind

I like to be freely drifting

 

The hug of nature gives more than others

Not a bit of untruth in the love it gives

I’m used to the different faces going around me

Yet I do not put my trust at stake with you people

 

I’m a drifting soul on the noisy streets

No one would bother to take a second glance at me

I have my loneliness to drown my sorrows

Just leave me   

Leave me drifting

Hey I understand this fully. ( I hope). Sometimes with all that we go through its hard to want to be bothered with anyone or anything. People are so sometimesy that you would just rather be a passer by instead of a friend. This piece is timeless because life will always be the same. It is the individual that makes it different. Great Poem.

Live, Love and Learn

Reminds me of something called , "Tumbling Tumbleweeds", no
attachments to the anchors in life, drifting with the wind, free
in the summer breeze, of no use to anyone and no need for the
anchors of humanity.
This poem tells the story of depression, exhilleration, hope and
freedom. A beautiful story, very well told. Thank you !

Aside from the grammatical errors-it is simply a breath of truth we all experience from time to time. Remove the s from feet-it interupts the flow immediately, and takes from a nice piece.

This is a nice musing, very easy to read, easy on the eyes and makes a wonderful statement about self empowerment.
