Center-Stage

 

 

Who, what, when, where, why? Wind lullaby. 

 

I seem to be discreetly insecure.

No social scene, so does it even matter anymore?

 

No rep that needs kept.

No friends to be had.

Just sit here in self-pity.

And feel lonely and sad.

 

I guess there's nothing to worry about.

So I'll worry about Nothing and what's he's up to today.

And if he'll get it done on time, and if he'll be okay.

 

This is inner thought.

Working on my morals.

 

Making everyone as comfortable as possible.

Yet again, I  have put myself last.

Waiting to be picked first.

By someone like me.

 

Watching cars go by like a movie.

Sitting here like this is a memory.

Its a past ttime.

Yet another hobby, I've collected.

 

Laying down, center-stage.

Staring up at the trees.

This is a restless serenity.

 

Just wish that someone would join me.

And experience this chaotic, quiet place.

Haha. No, but I have major empathy. Sometimes it scares me. Like...I see things that I've never experienced, places and things SO detailed that I know someone has and that I never could've just imagined it. Perhaps, I felt what you felt at some point in your mind. [: Glad I could help put it in words. ♥

Damn I like how you spliced it between chaos and silence. Restless serenity. Perfect word for that comfortable tormenting isolation. Very to-the-point and it speaks non-chalantly. Like it understands the why and the why not. The only thing left is to live it. Good choice of words.

Thank you so much. You read and interpreted it perfectly. ♥

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
