A Good Feeling... Poem by Nestor David Armas

You've left me a good feeling
Like from a high I'm reeling
I'm leaning back
No longer out of whack,
Got the notes in my pocket
Like that picture in your locket,
Telling me where I'm headed
Like a map in my head embedded,
Fate is a funny thing
You never know what it'll bring
Round the corner
Like another's country's foreigner,
We'll see what lies ahead
For now I'll continue to break bread
As I wander heart in hand
To a promised land
Hoping to find my one true calling
As I hold on to my faith to keep from falling
Into darkness and despair
As I part my hair
I'll smile at my reflection
Heading out into an unknown direction...
