At Peace

I'm at one with the fact that I'm not a top priority
To anyone that could potentially love me
I understand that I'm just not everything someone needs
And I can finally make peace

I still hurt every evening when I sit and write
I still hurt every morning when I wake up with obscured sight
I still hurt every time I go out alone
I still hurt when I look down to see nothing displayed on my phone

There's nothing I can do to change that fact
And I've come to peace with that
There's no one that I know that's right for me
So I'm gonna sit back and let things happen naturally

I'll sit and do what I want
I'll improve myself until I become a demand
I'll watch the world roll around
And listen ever patiently for that specific sound

But you can change that fact by changing the way of your looking at this world.
You can change that fact by helping someone for reach to his target.
You can change that fact by a smile in the face of a person shattered by life.

Yeah ...You can change that fact @xxsenpaixsamaxx

Very true, we all have the power to change thing. We just choose not too.

Very good. I enjoyed reading it. A lot of poems on here I do not, but this one kept my interest to the end.

Oh xd

Very good. When you put the lyrics on the music-lay out in Steemit, we'll listen

Truly loving someone is not possible without loving and being at peace with yourself...less of a cliche and more of an unchangeable law of nature. If you've learned to be at peace with your aloneness, you are one step closer to finding that intimate relationship you have a birthright to. Keep sharing, my courageous friend :)

Very true, Thank you :D

pleasure to meet you and your channel, I like your writing style!

It would mean a lot if you could give a feedback to my first poem.
Cheers, Daniel

A beautiful short poem about a specific moment of existence..it is truly a reality of feelings in a moment of surrender in a fight you do not wish to be part of but still struggle to embrace..I love the transparency of feelings throughout the verses..you can feel the struggle the poet is still facing..a mix of life in love, pain in existence and optimism in failure..Bravo!!! Keep in touch.

Thank you :D
