| Ismael Nery - Infinity |
How long must I chase the light
traveling space, time and the rhythms
of life…to ease this darkness of night
you’re always hovering in my dreams
is time something that never ends
just a kaleidoscope of changing scenes
seeds of poetry grow deep inside of me
branching outward to touch your heart
I learned long ago love has no guarantee
how long must I chase the light
traveling space, time and the rhythms
of life…to ease this darkness of night
searching the infinite heavens for a star
one that can be trusted with sacred wishes
do life’s song end at the end of the bar
opening again in some spiritual musicality
vibrating into eternity pieces of what was
entering into the black hole of duality

Thanks for visiting - my thoughts are fragmented - hope this makes sense
"How long must I chase the light...." This question resonates. Grief lasts long, when one loses a love so big. A doctor once told me the depth of my grief reflects the depth of the love. That helped.

Nice use of repetition in your infinity poem, Truedessa, and a pertinent question. I love the phrase ‘just a kaleidoscope of changing scenes’ and these lines:
ReplyDelete‘seeds of poetry grow deep inside of me
branching outward to touch your heart’.
May you one day catch that light...
ReplyDeleteI love it when a prompt leads to more questions than answers, Truedessa...
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely, True .... when poetry touches hearts it's indeed magical.
ReplyDeleteI love the refrain of How long must I chase the light. I hope that from darkness of night, we can find that spiritual musicality. May we all find that star!
ReplyDeleteYou raise questions that intrigue many of us. The not knowing keeps us asking questions! Well done.
ReplyDeleteI like the repeating questions. Beautiful reflections in this poem.
ReplyDeleteIt makes perfect sense. May we all find such a star!
ReplyDeleteWhen you stop to chase the end is near.
