Searching Home: This land, This world, The only place I know. But is there not another? Another place to roam my careless years away With new passions and new dreams, A new happiness I know not of here? I seek a new life, And in seeking I loose myself To the demonds of thought I so knew in my past. I knew them so well that I could scream out their names. I knew them so well that I had the reassurance of predicting their next move. An odyssey of home Which I so need to have, And I will not stop till my void is filled. Because I know there is a land, A world, In which I know not of, And the excitement of knowing is all that keeps me searching For my home, my happiness, my new life.  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

I love the positive aspects in this Javier. Searching for our own unique Utopias ... I forever follow this same path. I enjoyed the wording, and the way this was crafted, well done!  Best wishes, /Kit |

It seems that we are all searching for that place to call home. I really like your work. Even though I don't reply much, I do read it all and I havn't read anything that I don't like. Keep it up!! jason It can't rain all of the time. -Micheal Draven(The Crow) |

i love this one. it speaks to me. u know what i wonder. i wonder if chairs could talk, what would they say? i asked my language teach and then told her what i thought mine would say was that i was choking it. and she looked at me funny, so i pulled back my arm to reveal my hand which was clutching the chair. forks and spoons all the way. knives are dangerous. Don't wander throught this glassy surface, expecting to find more than me, because what I am without a purpose, but a lone mirage to see. |

Dopey-Is your name Javier? I ask because I'm not sure. It's a great poem, I can't say much more than that. I think I know how you feel, maybe not exactly. Muy bien mi amigo. Hasta luego Bel Beautiful is empty Beautiful is free Beautiful loves no one Beautiful stripped me -"Beautiful" CREED |

Dopey: like i said, this speaks to me. anyways, what do you think chairs would say if they could talk? i'm gonna keep asking you this until you tell me what you think chairs would say if they could talk. i didn't know you spoke spanish. como esta? Love ya much, Allysa Don't wander throught this glassy surface, expecting to find more than me, because what I am without a purpose, but a lone mirage to see. |

Dopey~~~I think we all are looking for that one place...Where we can call home...Sounds like you are looking for the place already...I wish you luck if this is based on a personal experience... *Falling in love is when you give someone a piece of your heart, falling out of love is when the piece doesnt fit* |

Great write!!! I know we all are looking for something better than what we have. And there's nothing wrong with that as long as what we are looking for is to better ourselves inside. That actually is life's goal. As long as we are being realistic, let me be the first one to say, GO FOR IT. As i wake up in the morning I ask myself, "Is life worth living or should I blast myself" TUPAC SHAKUR |
