Lost In Time by ~maplekokob:iconmaplekokob:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Spiritual > Open




A fallen angel with no wings,
Lost in time, separated at birth,
From the ones of long ago,
The ones who share her ancient soul.

Placed here, am I, to sing out loud,
Pushing my voice through the crowd?
Or shall I wait, and silently sleep,
Dreaming of life as it should be?

Do I stand for my hearts song,
Or slip into the fading dawn?
Do I stand for the truth of yore,
Or listen to the days own tale?

What to do in a time unknown,
When one is strung to the past?
Shall we live for what is shown,
Or show the world how to live?

Am I a light in the dark,
Or the darkest light?

Author's Comments

I wrote about this subject in a past journal entry. The thought has weighed heavy on my heart for some time, and I love the idea...so here's the product.

In short: I sometimes feel like I should have been born alongside my ancestors who follow the same doctrine I believe in today...but than I realized, maybe that's why I'm living today and not yesterday. To bring my truth into the world.

Note: The picture is off the internet.

We are born in our time for any number of reasons. Whether it be our belief system or our doctrine. We each have an obligation to try to show the world our light and I believe that your light to the world is one to illuminate for all to see. Great work dear.

Thanks my love. I wholly agree (for once aye? *winks)

Both me and you have such odd lights...like...skittles colored or something.
