Night thoughts


 


who then
enters this
intellectual
abyss
where
thought
has no
end
and its
beginning
has no one
with which
to
validate
itself.
I am
your captain
blindly
you follow me
yet
I walk behind.
Will my words
bear the mirror
an echo long past
of things to come
and direction
only relevant
to those living
with
perpetual self doubt?
Comes now
a sailor
whose ship
was lost at sea
isn't the abyss
a resting place
for ships, you and me?
Alive I was
taken for granted

in death
all remember me
as with
intellectual fodder
in the abyss
that
no one can see

Hot Water near the bottoms of the sea, pushing breathing life into me, a bubble up floats into air fresh and clean, refreshing in sight of color seen. Transparent and Light through the darkest night, fighting back pressure to be in Life! Again to the sun in from Abyss comes flight. :) I really really like your poem and your style of writing.

Poetry is what gets lost in translation.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
