Depth Of Experience Poem by Gary Bernard

In life's grand tapestry, threads intertwined, We share our joys, our hearts aligned, Laughter echoes, memories unfold, Yet deep within, our stories stay untold.
Our experiences, shared, reach only so far, In the light of day, we see who we are, But in the quiet night, alone, We confront the truths we've always known.
Together we walk, hand in hand, Through fields of love, across the land, Yet within each heart, a secret space, A private journey we each must face.
Excitement shared, yet uniquely felt, In our core, only we truly melt, Wealth and hardship, seen by the crowd, Yet silent battles are never loud.
Ideals we uphold, collectively bright, But personal beliefs grow in the night, Joyful moments, celebrated wide, Yet true joy springs from deep inside.
No matter the closeness, the love, the care, There are depths within we cannot share, For in each soul, a solitary quest, The deepest experiences are self-expressed.
And therein lies the beauty, pure and true, In our solitude, we each renew, The strength to stand, to feel, to be, Unique threads in life's vast tapestry.
What will your verse be, in this endless play, In the story of life, day by day? Each line we write, each step we take, Adds to the song, for our own sake.
