Have you ever wondered

Have you ever wondered

Why?

Simply why,

Have you ever questioned

How?

Like, how do we know anything? 

It's all just theory and speculation

Sure it's been proven one way

But surely there's another

And what if,

What if there's something we can't see

Like a thin veil covering an

Explosion of knowledge, opportunity

Discovery

Hiding something that may very well

Shatter our world

This glass balloon

What if it were right in front of us

This whole time?

Why can't we see it?

How can we remove the veil

We can't see?

What if nothing exists?

And logic and religion were all myths

Created by us in our desperate attempt,

Need, for order amongst the chaos?

Not that I believe that any at all myself

But what if everything we thought

Was wrong? 

Questions that plague me.

Author's Note

I'd love to have a discussion about these things.. I should take a class I philosophy.

I love this. These are the kind of questions that could start the making of a good movie.
Like The Matrix or something. What if nothing is what we think it is?
It's so scary. Like what does that mean for existence? Is everything meaningless.
Or does that make it even more meaningful?

[Meraki]

Well I believe everything is meaningless, in hindsight that's exactly what makes them meaningful. Not it's purpose or even love those are the reasons at times to hold onto them but the fact that something was even in your memory makes it meaningful. Existence is a lot more complex than whether or not things have meaning, both are debatable. I think existence is what you perceive. In the end that what everything leads back to, perception. Though I could be extremely wrong too and everything is nothing. Anyways, thank you for reading amd granting me the honor of a review as well as something to stimulate my mind.

I kid you not. I was about to write a poem yesterday that starts with "Your perception is your reality"
I didn't though.

Because genius. Lol

[Lizzie Mitchell]

I don't know how it works but we should probably collab sometime.

[Meraki]

I've always wanted to do that, I just couldn't find anyone who I thought would be able to do one with me in a seamless transition, and when I do I figure they aren't interested. But now, I can because I like your writing style and you're actually interested in a collab :D. I think we find a theme and then one writes the beginning and sends it to the other and then they finish it and bam the finished work is shared between us and then we fine tune it together. Lots of communication.

[Lizzie Mitchell]

ok sounds good

[Misery]

If all we thought is wrong...let us write,
If all we thought is true...let us write,
Whether in deepest sorrow, or greatest elation...let us write.

[Meraki]

I love this comment. Truly one of the most inspirational and poetic I've read thus far

[Misery]

Thank you, dear poet.
