Eternal Torment

Eternal Torment

A Poem by Juan Muniz

For centuries I've wandered in this meadow. 
Never questioned my being there, lead by a path. 
Followed it blindly, enjoying the view. 
Ignorance was my bliss, for it was easy to behold. 
One morning , a swirl of thoughts reigned the day
"Why am I here?" and many more

A sudden fear of the unknown, 
Like as if something crawled out of its hole. 
Always there, waiting to wake from its slumber. 
Now I stand here staring at the horizon, 
A beautiful mystery I discovered. 
Like a song without lyrics, I lay bare.

This path now seems to fade, 
The world telling me to roam as I desire. 
Freedom was a feeling not a choice
Between countless possibilities, 
Where is this soul's fate?
