Loves, Stronghold Poem by James Darwin Smith II

Far away
So damn far away
Everything seems distant
Upon where these dreams
Search to reside

Too much body
The soul feels entrapped
Wanting to fly out
To show there are no limits
In an adventure of eternity's
Never ending lifetime


Further and further
This soul searches
And it searches
For the meaning
Of everything
Wishing to see hope
Shine on, so very bightly
Lit proclaiming paradise is within sight


The soul of mine
Nervous, yet wants to travel
To the great beyond
Where this flesh
Is invisible
To be judged from
Ever again

I am so far
On the outside
Yet, still somehow looking in
A spectator of dreams
Trying to find my way home
To the center of its dwelling


Truth be expressed
Many time, I am a nervous wreck
Trying to free myself
Of unspoken words
That should never be unsaid



I do feel out of place
But with time
Who knows
If I will find the puzzle
Where these fragmented
Dreams will finally find their place

And then eternity
Will forever smile
Its light of security
Beaming down
Upon an unstressed face

At least dreams can never go away
That is where hope takes place

Far away, trying hard to pull through
Reasons of why this body
Is at this time
Steering this soul
Towards the wrong way
The ego is way out of control


Find me here, everywhere
Just find me
Myself, may this soul
Destroy this anxiety
And hope shall never let go
This fate is destined
Should be destined for so much more


Life, I will never let go
Have never, will never
Till all is accomplished
And this body is finished
So the soul, my soul
Can travel onward
And beyond
And beyond and more


Who knows the many truths of this very soul?
That I would like to know



I maybe unsuccessful in many things
But perhaps that is what makes me feel blessed


I am a certain taste
Of a nomadic metaphor
Always searching to be better
Than I was yesterday
And today

Someday, this future will take its place
And this soul finally kills all of this anxiety
I can dream
Of comforting moments
Forever shining
Such beautiful golden rays


Unless I was an Alien all along
Perhaps, it would better that way?


Still I dream and I dream strong…
