Should it come to an end, never to remain
My world, restricted, again and again
A finite place, I have come to loathe
Trapped by limits, naked, unclothed
Living inside of me, a place to call home
Colorful nights, in vibrant monotone
Watching the shadows, creep in with a smile
Knowing they won’t last more than awhile
Yet, I still have this time, should I complain?
As I listen to the infinite, whisper in vain
The Daily Post – Finite

This is amazing poetry, perfect imagery; very heartfelt and familiar…I often feel this way too. I am remembering you now, from one of my earlier blogs–nice to reconnect 🙂

Oh dear, I was afraid you’d ask that–I’ve had so many, that I honestly can’t keep track, I’m sorry–but it was probably within the past year to 18 months 🙂
