Much more than a common place | Poetry

"Much more than common place"

I sit and watch, as I wait.

This time I have, I cannot harness.

A view of uncertainty rattles me.

What can I do? Who can I talk to?

Where is this leading me?

Forward more,

Yet life in this minute is painful and raw.

As I peel back the layers, I cannot make my dream.

My life now is not what it seems.

Strong and some-what crippling emotion.

How can I reach something not set? Wishing to wake up and forget.

Feeling out of place, even within familiar ground. Wanting someone just to come around.

Faces smile with glistening hope. Another day and I need to cope.

Dan.
