Analysis of Weightlessness Emotion



I’m getting high today because I can’t handle the pressure,  
Too much stress couldn’t compare to any horrible weather,  
Situation is tough when you’re lonely on a tether,  
Got a piece of my heart stuck on a feather.  

I soar to skies unknown,  
High above the tumult, where burdens are overthrown.  
Pressure mounts like thunder, relentless in its force,  
Yet I seek God in the clouds, a wild, untamed course.  

Loneliness grips tight, a tether unseen,  
As I drift in the breeze, a heart caught in between.  
In this depth, complexity isn't what you seek,  
Life feels cheap, courage wanes, the light seems bleak,  
In shadows, I stumble, chasing sighs, tears streak,  
Through tear-stung eyes, courage's strength is weak.  

I’m fighting this weightlessness emotion,  
In the echo of silence, I wonder, where do I belong?  
A soul in search of refuge, in a world that feels so wrong.  
Give me more than this life that I’m supposed to belong.

Donavan Hicks

I find myself at a loss for words, as it's evident that this introduction falls short of a proper biography. My journey in the realm of writing began with an aspiration to become an investigative journalist. Over the years, I have dedicated my pen to crafting poetry as a medium for conveying profound thoughts, emotions, and sentiments. I have come to realize the profound impact of my written words. Determined to hone my writing talent, I am dedicated to the belief that, one day, my gift will pave the way for me. To all those who have taken the time to read this, I extend my heartfelt gratitude. I welcome any feedback you may have. Furthermore, if you appreciate this poetry, I am pleased to announce the release of my second poetry book, which features accompanying artwork. I assure you that you won't be disappointed. You can find my book, titled "Whispers of the Unseen: Illuminations from Within," available for purchase through this link: [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CDNJ3SGZ?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860&fbclid=PAAaZhlPbQJceL_94cvJ-YMQmJes4n-TO0skKU9Aqtupahin8y_Y3UivR0ekY_aem_AYmGbWv1cR2aS7xZeSgqHjgfx_au-mb8MQrzVCWZL_CRgndM2wsk90I2zyssDWVCe58]. more…
