Ever feel like you're losing yourself?

Question

So man people on this world,

Yet each is their own and different.

The chance to meet new people everyday

Is what fills our lives with adventure.

And so we keep going

On and on-

Who will accompany us tomorrow?

Will they matter to us like our friends do now?

Time can only tell.

And so we pass onward

Into our futures

As the faces blend and transform.

Holding on to who we know-

'Cause who else can we turn to?

And sacraficing ourselves

Everyday

In fear of losing touch.

But the day will come

When we will stop

And see how much we've changed.

Answer 1

i wish i cud clap 4 u

it is a gud peom and an indisputable fact

Answer 2

These are profound and wonderful ideas expressed in a very prosaic manner. There's no tempo, rhyme, or rhythm, no elegance of language. There's no grace to this. I think you did lose yourself with this one.

And, if it matters to you,there are two errors in spelling. I know that I've swum against the tide, but I enjoy being mean and heartless.

Answer 3

So many..............in (?)

Yet each is their own and different....there is something wrong with this sentence.....suggestion  "Each of them the same, yet different"

I agree - we adapt ourselves to our surroundings, and melt  into the crowd because to be different is to be an outsider - man wasn't made to live alone and the uncomfortable feeling isolation evokes makes us amend our behaviour accordingly.

However, I don't think this is such a bad thing - especially, if it makes us better people.

Answer 4

very insightful

Answer 5

wow i can relate to that, deep but truthful dude realy cool

Answer 6

This is a very intense perspective and evocative poem.  I see time racing forward with faces that "blend and transform", and trying to hold on to what we know, only to discover ourselves to be an entirely transformed, metamorphosed person in retrospect.  And there is so much truth in your observation that we tend to sacrifice ourselves.  This is a complex and thought provoking poem.  Thank you.
