Poetry

Here I am running again
Towards unkown distance.
My feelings are resembling the ones I've felt before.
Somehow I feel like I've been running in circles
Of reminiscence in my mind.
 
Suddenly I find myself in the same old shoes,
The same old life that I've known of only in my dreams.
The same old gentle breeze is embracing my skin
Filling in every inch of my being with simpleness and tenderness
Of the feelings I might have condoled.
 
Throughout the leaves and trees
I hear the same old music playing along,
Following every little beat of my heart
Spreading the words I've heard somewhere before.
Singing the song resembling the one I used to sing.
 
Suddenly I begin to wonder if all of this is only a dream
Is all of this only my heart's craving.
Am I longing for something I've never known of,
But had memory of?
Maybe my dreams will never come true,
But my memory is still on, giving me strengh to carry on.

-Norma J. Rose
