Fault Found Without Mention

Lost in reasons I spoke without thinking, sometimes we cannot see

Those waves we want to believe, for darkness all around

Corners of the universe are not known at birth

And the world refuses to give up space

For all your name surrounds

Maybe if we just sighed for one second instead of crying for a new life

What seems to be disabling could remake the bed we made

I thought I was painting a heaven into our world 

One that could hold away every hurt

At least make bruises fade

Inside of shells we stand on hills and look up to the heavens above

Wondering if our destiny ripples as each day breaks anew

Yet we love just the same despite the inevitability

That suddenly shouts from every doorway

We afforded to walk through

Lost in reasons I spoke without thinking, sometimes we cannot see

The battles that laugh nervously for a bit of our attention

Corners of the universe are not known at birth

Yet the stars in our eyes can be infinite

In fault found without mention

Wow, this is such a soulful poem which oozes with hopfulness and light. The lines, "Maybe if we just sighed for one second instead of crying for a new life
What seems to be disabling could remake the bed we made", medicine for my soul, and, "Corners of the universe are not known at birth Yet the stars in our eyes can be infinite", fills me with hope. Inspiring poem!

Interesting what people read into our words, maybe I just read them different, the second stanza is telling and has that something hiding in its words...... and it is not beautiful is it?

Clever write Neva

This was a beautiful and insightful piece..

wow girl, the graphics alone set the tone for thought beyond the confines of 9 to 5 ... and you do not disappoint.

do we look to the universe to change our destiny for us? wrapped up in our habits without thought of responsibility for the path we find before us? ... which makes it so easy to place blame where it cannot convict

"maybe if we just sigh for one second" ... indeed. take a time out from the busyness of life, we would see the true things that deserve our squandered energy.

wonderfully thoughtful write, neva. muchly enjoyed. ;)

Ethereal, even metaphysical. Need more be said.

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

The ending search of soulfulness and light, well done, good read.

[Rene Velez]

beautiful work and great imagery, the wordplay and and feel of the poem are enchanting...

[lovepoet]

I tried it, sighing for one second - and it is exactly as you tell it.

May the stars in your eyes always be infinite.

Bravo!

The imagery is stunning and we take things for granted in this life and don't always see what we have. We don't see that maybe just part of our little world is the way it should be and that it has beauty in it.

I think this wraps it up beautifully. I think this is a place where we've all been and can relate too...x
