Where Once Life Was

Where once life was
now life is
and ever life shall be

until no life
the end of life
where

in the desolation of loneliness
life is everlasting,
going on,
and on,

for only in lonliness
can the life be seen
in perspective
in review

and realize
that lonliness
is all
life
was

but then

My life changes
a catalyst
a feeling
is the start

the barriers
start,
start to break
break,
break and crumble
down to the ground

with my heart in the middle
lonely, but unharmed
by the brick boundries
that burst, leaving a gap
that longs
longs to be filled

by life
but more

by the light
of realization

by the feelings that bring joy to
the world

and were not
before
residing
where once life was
