I Feel Nostalgia
You feel nostalgia for everything
That was and no longer is.
This description most definitely
Deepens and clarifies them.
The right words help us to know ourselves.
Through them
We can more accurately and securely identify the
contest of our inner life.
The right words break our isolation.
Because the mind which comes from
the brain has a far away existence.
The word is a physical existence
Intellectually, and mentally exists
when doing anything or taking place
faraway during the moment,
or even in any particular period.
Those words are not even intended,
But memorizing them
Are when they are born.
The violation from a loved one
Made my moods become darker
And more erratic,
When I just couldn't find words
To describe how I felt.
Wanting to feel really humble
Before tomorrow comes,
Being certain I was going
to be saved,
Out of love.
I was never in danger, not once
as I have faith in God
And that made me open a door to life.
I wasn't in shock anymore
I had the strength needed to do that
by myself in those days of youth.
