Looking Through You


A millennia is the feeling of walking,

Progressing forward, never looking back,

And yet I wonder,” When will I stop?”

 

Trains stick by then zip away, and

Right before you know it,

It’s just you again

 

When is the time right?

To calm down,

To descend back to earth

 

Day and night slipping like grains of sand,

Years become months, months to weeks,

Hours to minutes, and minutes to seconds

 

Then, from a night of darkness,

There is, but one gleaming star.

That is the feeling when you arrived

 

As if a spark of energy

Coursed through my veins

When seeing you

 

I shall not let the train leave,

You are there,

And I will go too

 

The first time in the millennia

I feel beyond warm,

And just your presence provokes that

 

Someone who understands and listens,

Through darkened times,

Through long days and nights

 

All this time you were out there,

And now I see through your eyes

I am not alone

I am a nerdy person, who is into Star Wars, Marvel, DC, IP man, and Bruce Lee. I'm usually shy at first, but can be a corny comedy person. I enjoy being outside (even in extreme cold weather), being with family and friends. I like to watch movies, play board & video games, write, and listen to music. I currently am searching for a way for me to become one with inner peace, to help calm myself of my past mistakes and become stronger.
