Future Thoughts : Personification Poetry

written by Poet : louis_in_nc


Some days I sit in silence my soul calmed by meditation

As I write another stanza bringing thoughts into the light

As each syllable finds its way into its final line position

It helps me work through feelings as I sit here and I write

 

Motivated, here I sit my mind in constant contemplation

Thinking about the past two weeks and what they mean to me

Wildly is my mind beset by its own livid imagination

Trying to work through meanings of the things of which it sees

 

A part of me is soaring high as some dreams reach their fruition

Balancing upon a line with danger lurking just beneath

Another step, another risk, avoiding another altercation

My mind is motivated only by the strength of its belief

 

My hope is that the future will reveal true satisfaction

And bring my life the levity it needs with which to heal

I’m focused on the future with no lingering distraction

Because deep inside I know that what I’m feeling is all real

 

A part of me is weary that this path leads to destruction

And the effort I am showing will be lost in the abyss

Yet I have to keep on trying to achieve my destination

So my heart and soul and mind can find its needed bliss

 

The future is not set in stone and this is my probation

A period of working through the past and all its pain

But with purity filling my heart and self determination

I just know that I can find a way to turn the past into a gain

 

It’s almost as if my very soul has gone through a mutation

And the way it sees the world has undergone a noticed change

I see my future full of life and it brings me true elation

No longer do I think about a past that’s been so strange
