Insightful Thoughts
Slowly he looks around for the one thing he knows he wants,
Lacking in fortune knowing he’s alone,
Not feeling how he should feel,
Not seeing what he should see,
Hoping to find a special place to fall upon and feel safe.
Wondering how far he needs to fall,
To feel the faith inside u need to know you’re alive,
Looking inside his heart he knows is the best place to start,
He wanders around the forever-darkening world,
Trying to find his light.
As he stares through the shadows of his past,
He can see the glittering light he has longed for,
Though the world is forever darkening this light stays prominent from the dark,
Walking towards this light he can see,
It’s a childhood memory dressed in light.
The past begins to fasten its hold on him,
Looking deep inside his heart,
The clench of a fist bring him back to his feet,
Knowing he can see this light helps fade away the dark,
The growing darkness withers away to reveal the world in its true form.
He continues to wander towards the growing light,
While walking forever remembering this is the real past,
The light all around gives him the strength to see its always been there,
The one thing he hides from himself is becoming forever closer,
Continuing to walk towards the light, thinking, hoping.
He makes, what in his mind seems forever,
The journey to the golden array,
He looks while shielding his eyes into a visage of his past,
He can see himself, a happier person, an adventurous boy,
He can see the images still in his head, the memories return.
He turns, able now to see a future in the distance,
His memories have returned to keep him alive,
Remembering how things used to be he opens his eyes,
Feeling truly alive,
Looking forwards in his mind he can imagine a new type of light.
He’s able to see clearly, back to his true self,
He walks away as the mirage disappears,
From an imaginary image to a long lost memory,
A fragment of his past has been returned,
Knowing, looking into his heart he can see the life.
He has realised,
Alive is not forgetting the past and looking to the future,
Alive is knowing your past lives on.
