A Life Revisited Poem by William Lindenmuth

A Life Revisited

Rating: 5.0


I thought that I was here before
And may have passed this way
It all looks so familiar
The returning of a day
Like a moment of forever
Frozen here in time
Another life revisited
But is it really mine?
I feel as if I have been here
I have visited for sure
The familiar air about me
Like the tide returning to shore
Could it be me I am here to find
On this journey alone
To seek a space familiar
A place one might call home
Perhaps I should take a ride
To find what lives within
For there will never be an ending
Till I know where to begin
It seems I have walked this road
In another space in time
The evening light will illuminate
This life forever mine
I am dancing with remembrances
Walking with a memory
Is this another person
Disguised so well as me?
This song it sounds familiar
A sweet haunting melody
I stand in a place revisited
But is it really me? ? ?

Dancing with rememberances and walking with memories. Wow, I love this Bill. It is going into my favorites today. thank you for sharing this and I think most of us have been at this place before. That DeJaVu feeling and makes us turn introspective. I loved it. Susan

I loved this poem william, as I have been ' In another space in time'! I guess I learned of the simple things in life that made me happy. I only need nature, a house and water. Had a garden in my other space in time. But peace was really what I found, even though my existance was meager, I was happy.
