My Own Little World
My entry for poem challenge @margaretwise.
Quiet runs through my mind
Seeking the tangible
Grasping at air
Filled with inspiration
The day starts again
With remnants trailing
Of yesterdays
Undefined tomorrows
Crowded with whats to come
Stilled with thoughts
Of what has been
Stirring anticipation
Thoughts spinning
Unsettled
Wishes, dreams, memories
Mesh into possibilities
Comforted by the familiar
Tempted, curious of the unknown
Want nothing more
Yet spurred by change
Questions become doubts
Choices become confusion
The familiar path
Leading to the unknown
Days given to nothing
Nothing thats been
Nothing to come
Nothing that is everything
Caught in life
In the place where we are
Hesitating at crossroads
Retracing our steps
Aspirations move us forward
Moving us to reach
With reins of contentment
Cementing us in stillness
A foothold on yesterday
Awaiting the end of today
A mind exploring ahead
Stepping forward, inching back
We can be who we are
Strive to offer more
See an empty day
Complete with yourself
Yesterday is our foundation
Today our opportunity
Our future not only tomorrow
The continuity becomes ourselves
