Wilderness

Wilderness or wild lands are Earth's natural environments that have not been significantly modified by human activity. Much like the thoughts that dart around our brain but hardly feel appropriate for another human's ears. They're raw and fierce. Turbulent and boisterous. It's a tangle of undergrowth only we can navigate. The people in our lives, the roles we assume everyday, the challenges we so desperately wish could be avoided. Yet we march on, keeping the largest chunk of our precious feelings, close to our hearts. Maybe you find yourself or someone you know in one of these poems. I certainly did.
