Live For

Live For

A Poem by Sondering Star

To those who mean well
but fade among the darkness,
hopelessly handing out light
stranded in a sea of empty wishes
I know you all mean well
but I wish you'd stop for once,
take a glance around and ask 
yourself, what am I really living for? 
Switch the lenses, take a different route
smile at the elderly but ask the young
what do you they live for?
and I will tell you that I live
for something greater than
gods and beliefs and change,
responsibilities and parent's ways,
I live for the stars, and mountains 
low and high, the trail of genuine laughter 
going on by, the dreams flowing
amidst the transparent silvery sea, 
of finally being united and
letting ourselves roam free.
