poem 69

“is this earth 

what is this place 

who are you 

unrecognizable face

what is this feeling 

piercing me to the core 

I can see through you 

I can see what we’re made for

I was shown the future 

I was shown the past

I was shown why things end

and why some things last

light beamed through my eyes 

and I could see

I could see the way 

things were meant to be 

I was left with a message 

a message to give 

a message that life 

is a great gift.”
