Where to be

To strech beyond the endless sky,
with no baggage of guilt to carry,
spread the wings, just aspire to fly,
no wants, no cause for worry.

To plunge beneath the deepest ocean,
wearing a suit, a mask for sight,
tearing shoal of fishes' motion,
and bury many a trivial fight.

ironically,today I stand firm on the ground,
attempting to connect the future to past,
No wings to fly, No fins to drown,
wondering, am I in this place miscast ?

    I like how you ended this poem w/a question - it gives it power. Also, this piece flows very well and comes alive with your vivid imagary. Well done. WRITE MORE!

    very interesting thoughts in this one and reflecting on places you would rather be . WE all feel like this sometimes I think.

    Ya Andrea, we all want to bury the negativity that surrounds us, the unnecessary worries and fly like a free bird, lead a peaceful life.

    A great way to be alone and expressed so beautifully.
