A Walk Into the Sun

Aimlessly spinning,


Need a place to center,


A continuous obsession,


Only one thing will content her,


Systematic searching,


Doesn’t seem to be working,


She only finds static,


And her life becomes erratic,


Her world begins to crumble,


And through this maze she stumbles,


Into the wrong hands,


She blindly turns,


Torn again,


When will she learn?


So many times her hearts been slain,


The only thing constant in her life is pain,


Now which way will she turn?


Will she once again be burned?


Will she chance the great unknown?


Or be content to be alone?


Then, disillusioned,she walks straight into the sun,thinking it’s the moon,


And she screams, and she cries, that she knows ,love is coming soon.

How I empathise with your words here, and it is all the harder when you have so much love to give. Personally, I can be content on my own for a while but, in the end, the need to love and to give becomes all consuming and I have a deep seated belief that true and eternal love awaits us all somewhere. Lovely poem. Nigel
