AWAKENING
A Poem by Debbie_Philly
Awakening
I wrote this while down the shore a few years ago
I don't know where I am anymore
where I am to be, what to be
Standing on the edge of yesterday
and tomorrow.
I sit here breeze blowing,salt air
tickling my nose awakening my senses
I'm relaxed yet dulled, I cant feel it.
The excitement that used to jump up
off the sand and grab hold making me
feel whole.
No more moon wishes, no more boy
dangling down from the crescent sphere
to take my hand.... just memories
The days have gone by, I don't know
them anymore and they don't know me.
It scares me to death.
I need to be in that place where life
breathes nostalgia into my soul
and turns my worlds upside down.
Something to shake things up.
My absolution never comes this night.
I smell the salt air, I feel the breeze
it's comforting yet I'm still dulled do
I retrace my steps ....... or make new ones .
