omega sunset
Omega sunset
I used to think I knew everything
But that everything has now faded into something
and that something seemingly to nothing.
I grasp at worn out memories
of actions I have done in the past
but they cannot sustain me, they cannot last.
In the end I will ask myself what I have learned
from this experience this life
this strange ever changing free flowing life.
I drift in endless circles trying to find an identity
trying to be the man I cannot be
but he lives somewhere deep inside of me.
I am challenged everyday to come out fighting
but I find life frightening.
but one day I want to see myself come out as fast as lightening.
However as life gives out dawns it also gives out sunsets
regrets the taste of bitter seeds of weeds within our hearts and minds
and when my days have past an on that last omega sunset
will I see myself wiser than when I began?
when I was a child and not a man
when the sun rose on my life
when I was a bright light seeking brighter lights still
and learning what it was like to shine brightly
and having the will to do so and to grow!

Nice poem Daniel.
particularly like the lines of going round in circles trying to find an identity, trying to be the man i cannot be. he lives somewhere deep inside of me.
Great lines.
