I
did,
at one
time, enjoy
the safety that comfort
zones provided me whenever
it became necessary to withdraw inside such
and wait out the world until my comfort overflowed,
and I could sail home once more
the wind at my back,
and my heart
swollen
with
hope.

Nice!

I love the shape of it -- and the poignancy.

Lovely

Really enjoyed the quiet contemplative mood of this poem. The yearning is relatable, and the swelling of the lines is an added touch.

As we grow we move from the famous security blanket to the adult version — comfort zones — that place we withdraw to after life's living becomes too much.

And now?

And do you no longer? Reading this poem is timely for me. Thus the curiousity about now.

ah so... grasshopper

to seemingly find comfort on a ball spinning 66, 000 mph through space and populated and live, like fleas on a dog, one day the planet will die, but hopefully not in my life-time. Your poem was inspirational (~_~)
