Lost Time

Is it possible to lose time?

Is there such a thing as lost time?

Things can be forgotten and time can be wasted,

People can be forgetful but was time lost?

To anyone or anything that has been forgotten you are not lost

Your just waiting to be found

Things arent truly lost they are either forgotten put aside or held on too

Just like time we keep going or we keep waiting 

Whatever your case might be but never lose hope 

Because someone or something is wanting and waiting to be discovered 

Once found or rediscovered lights will shine 

After all waiting is only a matter of time.

An immigrant in our own land

My thoughts on the poem are its a good poem it tells the tale of what will make you change what will take to change and the hardships you face while you try to change like a civilian becoming a prisoner or an immigrant in a new country or any person in general what must happen or what will you do to change.

Every culture has an idea of peace and some are definitely better than others but every one does believe in peace no matter how violent they are everyone believes in peace among themselves or himself but everyone believes in peace even tyrants.But the means in which peace is acquired is hardly ever a peaceful method.But in the poem immigrants in our own land by jimmy santiago baca immigrants often come to new land to escape poverty and violence but there expectations are not gonna be met there dreams might be shattered because they might never change they leave their land because of violence only to come to a land and engulfed by new versions of violence and some might never find the peace they look for or so desperately need. Just like civilians heading to a prison or immigrants in new land the dreams in our hearts are always worth chasing if they dont exist.
