A Time Long Ago

[princesskitana]

I imagine a time when I used to exist.
Never wanting to be born a boy.
Never admitting to shame.
The time when I was on an equal plane with the rest.


I imagine a time when my raven hair would cast evil eyes upon others.
When my first glance to the one who created and held me, disappeared.
When darkness becomes daylight.


I remembered a time when I died.
Never forgetting my faults.
Always looking to the past.
Never forgetting the last.


I remembered a time when I moved.
The strength which held me would crumble to the ground.
Never again witnessing daylight.


I embraced a time when I learned.
Never revealing my secrets and knowledge.
Struggling against my will.


I embraced a time when everything in the world was peaceful.
When evil was a part of good, but only was controlled by goodness.
To show that in a world, there must exist an "evil."


I lived a time where everything has become corrupted.
Where my past haunts me; every waking moment.
And I try to go back, to a time, I am not worthy of.

No matter how many times i read it when ever i get to the end i can feel the poem... We all want to go back to another point in our life's to return to the past. But no matter how hard we try we cant, our child hood views of who we wanted to become pledge our memories constantly reminding us of our faults. the first line of the poem is talking about our child hood when we were more then a suit. We never wanted to be boys but instead men, when the author says " i remembered a time when i died". To me that signifies the point in our life's when we lost site of our dreams and our innocence's,we always look to the past for answer to our future.

lol well since she said BORN a boy, im not so sure she meant she wanted to be a "man" instead of a "boy" and seeing as how this is "a time long ago" im gonna take a shot in the dark here, and through context, assume that what she is writing about here in the begining is a past life or a PRE life ( life before being born on earth; a celestial life ) in a world that was nearly perfect ( some sort of heaven, or perhaps a time of gods ) that supposedly she is not worth of now in this age of corruption as a human being who is undoubtedly imperfect just as we all are, as for the rest of the stuff you wrote, i dunno... youre probably right about the other parts of your response, no way to tell really unless i ask her hehe. ^^^^of course im not calling you wrong or anything lol just stating my own personal opinion.

-- just a side note from me: Asha you are worthy of living in any time you want in my eyes
