Did I forget to choose? Or did I choose to forget?

This is my first attempt at writing a poem, please be gentle!



Did I forget to choose?
Or did I choose to forget?

I have traveled so far
To be exactly where we are

If the latter is true
Who are you?

If the latter is false
Do I still have a pulse?

The more I realize
The more I know
Confusion sets in
I begin to grow

Who casts the shadows I see on the wall?
Perhaps my inner light has grown much to bright after all

I do not fear the things I see
For those are mere reflections of the one and only ME

Did we forget to choose?
Or did we choose to forget?

We have traveled so far
To be exactly where we are

Who are you
If the former is true?

Do you still have a pulse
If the former is false?

The more we realize
The more we know
Confusion sets in
We begin to grow

We cast the shadows we see on the wall
Perhaps our inner light is much to bright after all

We need not fear the things we see
For they are mirror reflections of the one and only ME

I don't know which one is cooler....your avatar or your poem. Or maybe you? They both appear to belong on a Pink Floyd album.

You take the subject of fear and you make it light somehow. Something that is easily managed and easy to overcome. What it needs now is the analogy of opening doors. When opportunity knocks, let the fear out and acceptance in.

The more I realize
The more I know
Confusion sets in
I begin to grow

That was very good.

'Cause even the stars they burn Some even fall to the earth We've got a lot to learn

Quit teasing me now.........what's the song?

Is that Grace Potter in your signature link?

An old friend just introduced me to her the other day.

Have you heard this one before?

I've never heard it before but I've felt it.
