I walk down the street unconsciously
listening to sounds of life.
In this city I'm a stranger and in
mine I'm uninvented guest.
For so long, I have a flower of this existence
afraid to plant it
strange land this is you ask
years of walking on a 2 left no heart
like a ghost
like a phantom
I gave the people what they wanted
Learning for any self a mask and a
paper heart
And i'm tired
I'm tired wanting answers to questions not asked of
So i walk without turning back I wonder
Do only tops of a mountain deserve to be warned by the sun.
Do only birds have rights of the blue sky
I am not a birds nor do i have wings
but who said I don't want to fly?
Help me with the theme of this poem?what is the poem about?
The theme of this poem is the feeling of alienation, a sense of not belonging, the weariness of conforming and the desire to be free of it, to be your own, real self.
Reply:I think that this person is lost and hopeless, unenlightened regarding the meaning of life. I would suggest the following themes:
1. Lost
2. Hopeless
3. Life
4. The Darkness Within My Head
5. Drifting Aimlessly
6. Searching
Hope this helps.
