© Where Is This Person by Gwendolyn Thomas Gath
TXU001108354 May 2003
Where is this person whose fire burns
Immensely and intensely inside of you
Intimately or secretly pursuing the unknown
Within yourself and within another?
Many times I contemplate the facts
The if’s and the but’s
Why many times others want to give or
Want to receive but the fear of
The unknown has deeply engrossed their spirit
That they incrementally give
Is it because they are afraid the exploitation
Of their heart could be their destruction?
Where is this person that represents you?
For me do you ask where then am I?
I am here and will continue to be here
Without a fear of giving
Without a fear of touching
Without a fear of love or loving
Without a fear of stirring myself so deeply
Within my own soul that I have
No choice but to give
My giving is a part of me
My love is what makes me
It is love that represents me
In every aspect of my life
That is where you will find me
So, who is this person that represents you?

The poem is beautifully written. Your question
and message within
is very clearly conveyed. I love how
one single question turns into a downpour
Of emotions a truly beautiful
profound and brilliant piece!
Wishing you Peace Love and Light...Yolie
Excellent.

This one really makes me think. Sometimes when you think you know about somebody or some people, but then things happen and all of a sudden you feel like these people or this person is a stranger. It's strange that people and friends who know you once and then act like they don't know you at all. I have these questions all the time. Those who act like this toward me will know who they are, I need not even spell out their names.
Good poem. Probably took the words out of my mouth.

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D
is a passionate and poignant call to self-examination.
"Is it because they are afraid the exploitation
Of their heart could be their destruction?" WOW!
I find this second strophe, and this clarion question, deeply philosophical and spiritual and appreciate how it challenges one to step out and make a difference. How many have rotted in their safe zones because of their fearfulnesses? Too many I fear.
A fine insight poetess
