A World So arbitrary

A World So arbitrary

A Poem by Melting away

There,s no goal, no progression, no point.
It's all so meaningless, so boring.
Why are we here when we do nothing?

We start at school, so we can get a job.
Then we get our job, so we can pay for more school.
Then we buy a home so we can live better.
We still have a job, so that we can live.
We live so that we can do what?

What is our purpose?
Why are we here?
Is there some reason for us to be here?
Or are our lives completely arbitrary?

It's interesting and I do wonder this myself sometimes. We live down a narrow path in order to survive, but I guess we have to find our own reasons why it is worth surviving: to get what we want, to be loved or simply to be remembered? There is a lot of thought provoking questions to be answered through this poem.

Direct questions to uplift from a downward spiral: to have a purpose driven life is very much part of a Blueprint, deep set and spiritually urged. Thank you for once again stressing the importance of an inner world.
