Zoning Out, I'M Awake Now. Poem by Freesia Whiz

Zoning Out, I'M Awake Now.



Once I was staring, zoning out into space
My mind’s off somewhere, into a different place
I look around, there’s nothing to see
Only to realize, really, nobody’s with me
Now how would I feel if I start off to escape
Run till I’m out of breath to somewhere else safe
Where I can find people or maybe just one person
To know that I’m not alone in this so-called oblivion
Would I feel better (does it matter?)
Would I stop now or go even farther?
I think I’ll just stop, breathe in for a while
Gather some strength if I decide to go another mile
Then again, what good could that be
If in the end, it would still be just me?
Now I’m awake, at least I think I am
I managed to stay quiet, peaceful and calm
Even when I see you standing right in front of me
Your eyes are so kind, yet so full of mystery
You stare at me for a couple more minutes
I almost thought I’d be out of my wits
You gave me a look, and I begin to shake
You then hold me in your arms, a move I didn’t think you’d make
I was too frail I couldn’t even speak
Is it you that I’ve longed for to seek?
I wanted to ask, but then I need not to
For when you smiled at me, I already knew
That everything’s alright, now that I’ve found you..
