Beauty in the Mundane // A Poem
Added 2020-10-26 19:48:21 +0000 UTCOn fall mornings like today
Swaddled in layers for warmth
Clutching my steaming coffee in my frigid hands
Sitting next to the space heater on high
I contemplate the beauty in the mundane
The tiny moments that make up each day
Meaningless standing alone but all making up the whole
What is the point of anything if not to add to the greater picture that is our life?
Riddled thoughts
Muttered complaints
Lurking feelings all wrapped up into one heart-beating being
Bones dressed for each occasion
Tangled hair pulled back to take on the day
How beautiful it is to be all of this and nothing at all
Billions existing each day with their own plan
Own worries
Own habits
Own families
Desires for something more
Who am I to make something bigger of it all?
Existence in itself is mundane
Picking apart the routine to get to the gore
The constant search for something more
For are we truly alive or just existing?
I'd choose either or
Comments
I’ll take either one too.
