As I See It

by Leah20   May 25, 2007


Please substantiate the following claims.

Existence
I can see it
But I cannot feel it
I'm immersed in it
Yet I don't belong
I wish I had a
Purpose
In searching
You will come up with one thing
And one thing alone
Love
But I can't feel it
I can't see it
My heart hast turned a blind eye
I see only
Lust
Primitive desire
Spread over with a facade
Of beauty and selflessness
One true desire
Self-gratification
A perpetuation of the cycle
Accidents bring
More and more into
Existence.

    That... ..was beautiful. It felt really "in the moment" I like the aim for simplicity, but imagery in emotions.
