A Place

by katy   Sep 4, 2007


I live in a place,
A place we call home,
A place known as the world,
Where different things happen each day,

As we wait around,
Look around,
Our eyes deceive us,
So does the world,

Love,
We get entangled,
Pulled in by lies,
Our souls attached to others,
A life to shared with someone else,

Death,
We grieve for lost ones,
Who we can not get back,
Bringing us down,
Into an eternal depression,

War,
Bombs being dropped,
Guns being fired,
Children fighting for the right of their country,
Massacres of the young and old,

Politics,
Broken promises,
Deceit for their advantage,
But when they get power,
All comes down on them,
Backfires with revenge,

All this is only a small part of life,
There are two sides,
The dark and the light,
The light side is the side we all beg for,
Just to have a little taster,

New life,
A baby's bright eyes,
Gleaming with light,
With purity and innocence,
A chance for a brighter future,

Family,
A rock,
Loving unconditionally,
Support when you most need it,
Hugs supplied unlimitedly,
People to fall back on,
They will catch you,
Without a doubt,

Love,
New love,
Real love,
Hearts beat together,
Sharing your thoughts and feelings,
kissing and hugging,
Staring into each others eyes,
Looking deep into each others souls,
Thats what love is,
Appreciating the little things,

Friendships,
Meeting new people,
Keeping old friends,
Years to come to get to know each other,
Supporting them in anything,
Telling the truth,
Sharing secrets and keeping them,

This world is our home,
Our only one we will ever get,
Life isn't so bad,
When you see the lighter side,
Life seems that much better,

It will always be the same,
If we didn't feel these emotions,
The world wouldn't turn,
Our love makes the world go round,
Our feelings makes life what it is,

Just take that one look,
Up at the blue cloudy sky,
At the shining stars at night,
You will then see the better side of life,
Appreciate it as it is.

    This poem seems to be a bit delusional to me. Not only that, but I don't think it really states anything that I have not heard before. The ending is particularly weak, it becomes nothing more than an opinionated statement.

    "Hearts beat together" could be changed to

    "Hearts beat in unison" vocabulary has an immense effect on the emotional power of just about any statement, or poem as it is here.
