Why do I feel like a girl stuck in her teens
instead of the confident woman
I know that I am?
Thoughts of him meander in my mind
walking the same pathways over and over
wearing deep grooves from the repetitiveness
Does he love me?
Does he think about me?
Will we be?
I know what I want
I know what I need
I was counting on it being with him
I wonder are his thoughts of me
like a walk on the beach
a quick breeze blowing away any trace of me
I need to sweep away my own doubts
if he doesn't think and wonder
then he is not worthy of someone like me
instead of the confident woman
I know that I am?
Thoughts of him meander in my mind
walking the same pathways over and over
wearing deep grooves from the repetitiveness
Does he love me?
Does he think about me?
Will we be?
I know what I want
I know what I need
I was counting on it being with him
I wonder are his thoughts of me
like a walk on the beach
a quick breeze blowing away any trace of me
I need to sweep away my own doubts
if he doesn't think and wonder
then he is not worthy of someone like me
this poem was inspired by Henry David Thoreau
As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.
