I'm Here

Outlooks on Life & People

Somthing deep inside me

Rolled over and died

As the world crashed waves

Upon the shores and beaches

Something went wrong

And I could do nothing

People died,

People cried for those who died

and I could do nothing

I felt so small in the moment,

So huge, it grew as I wilted

I stepped back from myself

Took a deep breath and thought

As the tragedies around me

Were put into bigger hands

And I'm not alone

So my knowledge is timeless

My hands are soft and unburdoned now

My heart, Open, free

Finally doing it's job

To love, to care, existing

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is about me trying to take everything into my own hands, trying to everything myself, but when I break under the influence of having all this weight on my shoulders... I give up and leave it someone higher than me and I begin to live again.

I am not so sure that life is quite that simple but there is a simplistic attitude here that does begger belief in faith above life.The last few lines are maybe a bit sugary but i can forgive that as your metaphors although over the top for lifes problems are strong and sensible as we all get carried away with dealing with stress.Over all i enjoyed this and say if only life was so simple. Enjoyed.
