Words For ThoughtA Poem by AnonymouslyPerfectDeath It's unavoidable Yet we still attempt to fool ourselves into thinking we can escape But all we accomplish is to get even more tangled up in its net Life We grasp at it Claiming we have not fulfilled it to our likings Yet we never try to do anything to advance ourselves to that unobtainable goal Regret Like an anchor It holds us down so we can't advance to the next destination But we can not rid ourselves of this nuisance without a little bit of effort Joy The holy grail We adventure great distances to obtain it Though if we just took the time to appreciate our surroundings it would present itself to us sooner Love The final trial We push it away and put it off because we are afraid But this is the final destination for anyone to strive to reach and is the only way one will be truly satisfied in this life © 2017 AnonymouslyPerfect |
