Quiet of the Earth
I belong here
Perched on the
stump
In the middle of the
Forest
[insert tranquil woodland noises]
Adrift on a
dingy
Bobbing Gently a vast
Ocean
[insert gentle cadence of waves]
Not there
In the cluster of smug smog
And self-obsession
No one hears my words
Amongst the mushy moments
Whispered into bitten pillows
Brittled by complacency
Laconic lyricists
Emo motherfuckers
hiding behind their overwrought hormonal reasoning
Chaos becomes the common
And then I return
To my peace
All is quiet
Amongst the leaves and waves
Falling into rhythm of the earth
Drifting
back
to
serenity
Where Do I Belong?
I really don't know where I belong, but I feel as though I do not belong anywhere. Maybe this is one of the many issues that plague the world. Everyone is searching for people and places to identify with without realizing that they do not solely identify with one person, place, or thing. People are multidimensional.
