Discarded Life Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Discarded Life



Walking away from necessities in life, carefully discarding
them so no person can tell what I'm doing.

Soundlessly evaporating into thin air, not leaving behind
any traces or clues to follow.

Disappearing into wave lengths, scattered about the earth
in disarray, happily not existing here anymore.

Playfully becoming memories of old, past images folded and
put away in the bottoms of dresser drawers.

At last the peace and serenity craved for a lifetime have
been possessed and undertaken.

Having walked away from the existence of life, discarding
every particle and atom being washed away by the storms
of life and placed on a distant shore, no more to grieve.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

A lovely imagery of the withdrawal of self from the day - to - day activities of the present life from all it's miseries and pains. And then propelling towards the land of peace and serenity., free from any grief or sorrows.
