In This I Find

A poem

Why am I, I mean
Don't you ever wonder
Because this daily, every day
Leaves me hollow
And I slip into oblivion
Could it be, I mean
We're just another blunder
And this melancholy
That's wrapped itself around me
Is just another breath to hold
What are we, I mean
Apart from the obvious
Because it's ache inside
Has left me empty
And I need to feel
Is it this air, I mean
That leads me here
A time machine moment
An emotions memory
This despondent peace

You asked a good question.
"What are we, I mean
Apart from the obvious "
I asked the above lines often in my life. Do I matter? Is one life meaningful? I believe all we can do is be kind, show concern and listen. Maybe this is our true purpose. Thank you my friend for sharing your amazing poetry.

Feelings of loss
bring about this question
who am i
why am i here or anywhere
self discovery is both a painful and very rewarding journey
quite a poignant piece

This is so gooood!! Maybe there were a bit too many "I mean." other than that; two thumbs up

Well thank you very much, i really appreciate that! The "I mean"s were intentional in that they broke the poem up into sections. Either way, thank you for reading and leaving a review :)
