ashen fields

*

I sit alone as if I am fading

Invisible in the ashen fields.

My heart longs to be somewhere

to where I see myself

Clear as the new day

True to oneself’s beauty

Away from the toxicity of people’s opinion

Or as far away from my own shadow of doubt.

 

I sit alone & not running anymore.

Losing strength as the wind passes by

Losing a bit of my edge in this unreasonable persona, I face.

Yet I never give a **** as long as I kept on going

Reaching for something Unreachable,

I can only hope…

 

I want to feel the life of someone’s at arm’s reach

to feel that I am alive

I missed you.

Notes

this feels like a follow-up on my 'ashen gray' piece:

http://hellopoetry.com/poem/298918/ashen-gray/

though it is much more in a different road,

a road that i am longing to have..
