Who Knew



Sitting surrounded by an aura of contentment.
I savor the emotions I feel at this moment,
and memorize the people and situation around me,
knowing it could all be taken away in an instant.

What is this I hear?
Not crying or the silent scream inside my head?
No, a sound almost foreign to my ears.
Could this really be the sound of true laughter?

Feeling like never before,
I fully embrace this new sensation,
not caring what consequences might lay ahead.
Maybe my life is finally changing. . .

New faces, new people, new experiences;
I’m enjoying everything life has to offer.
I revel in the freedom from my own prison.
Who knew life could bring such wonders?
Even to one so long entombed in darkness as me.

Well said. True words of wisdom. Life is short and nothing lasts for an eternity. Not even relationships that are "promised for forever." Living in the future, hoping that everything will stay the same or living in the past, wishing it would be like it once was is chaining one's self to a very dejecting prison. But living in the present, accepting what is, appreciating everything and letting go of them if they choose to, is more of a happier formula for life, although most do not understand it.

Life is a roller coaster ride. It goes up and down. One is happy one moment, and the other depressed. But one can never be depressed ALL the time, as well as happy, which is a soothing fact. And you can find yourself all alone in one moment and it is so very shattering and struggling. But at the right time, especially if you accept everything as is and find peace within, life seems to bring you new delightful gifts, which make your happiness even truer and more grateful.

Beautiful write!
