A Beautiful Disaster

I'm the light, but for different shadows,
I'm a shadow of different lights,
A perfect muse for an hour,
The one with no past for a stranger,
For the others - the one with no life.
My destiny has been so cold to me
That my tears have turned into ice.

When the dream of tomorrow died,
Giving up for the dream of one night,
In a minute the time lost its value.
But what was the value of wasted days?
The sacred dream in the frame of lies?
No, living up to one moment,
If this moment itself is life.

And happiness is as short as a kiss,
As long as a sigh.
Its remnants last till the snow melts -
The snow that's never fallen.
It's all been inside my mind.

It is like a forgotten story -
I make all that's missing up,
Starting to wonder if I'm still existing.
Living among the dead,
Striving among the living,
Trying to find the truth,
Longing to be forgiven
By my true self. Or just -
Turn the time back and live.

I just want to live again...

By writing such a beautiful poem, you certainly had the feeling of living these emotions and releasing them. In the now you find the energy to enjoy life, not in the past, not in the future.

You need to reach out. You post beautiful poems here, but you do not interact at all. My advice: you will enjoy Pip much more if you read and comment also on other poets' works. You share to be read, so do others.

Love and joy.

You say your trying to find the truth and you have already found it: "It's all inside my mind."
Exactly, that is the secret and you have discovered it.
All reality exists inside your mind. It is your perception of what exists.
You make your own reality.
You have discovered what so few ever discover. Enjoy life!!!
