Purpose

Purpose

A Poem by FreedomIsAMust
"

Woke up one morning and this is where my head was

"
A Legacy?
Remember me not
but render me understanding presently 
I awake, I am here
Complexity'
Opportunity faintly knocks at every angel conceivable
Faintly' 
Purpose becomes agenda 
Is purpose here? Is purpose there?
I must find purpose
Tirelessly '
Distracted by worldly influences  
I give into the wants placed upon me
Vanity'
Queries arise about existence
My being' Your being 
Control or Illusion' Right or Wrong
These Things I Ponder

lines 1-3....not wanting popularity or to be liked but to be understood.
lines 4-5....meaning child hood and growing up was based on your environment and controlled by parents, teachers, pastors etc. I awake, meaning you have grown into an adult. I am here, here represents your status or situation(personal). Complexity is a personal and the main characteristic of myself. When i woke up, i woke up to complexity.
line 6-7....opportunity represents different financial sources or chances to be happy, whichever relates to you as the reader...Faintly is put on a line on its own to explain that there are many ways to be happy but not everybody knows how to find happiness.
lines 7-10....realizing that finding your purpose is one of the main keys to happiness(in my opinion)
you search vigorously for it.Trying out new things to find happiness you search here' you search there but you must find purpose. Tirelessly is left on a line alone to describe the toll searching for your purpose takes on you both physically and mentally.
lines 10-13....Worldly influences describe the medias portrayal of extravagant lifestyles and the must have luxuries of high end living. The wants placed upon me are the things television and friends try to pressure you into wanting. Vanity is the explanation to it all.
lines 13-17....is more spiritual. The lines are in relation to the thoughts most of us have on God and religion. Why are we here? Is there really A God? Are the Governments really one big conspiracy?
Those are the things i think about...... Thats a brief breakdown of the entire poem for anyone that needed a better understanding. It was really written for people to think and dissect themselves but....there ya go
