discover yourself

This poem is about finding the resilience to keep persevering in your life and what it takes to know who you are, enjoy. ;)

To exercise the mind.

To stretch and poke and prod. 

Feeling the breathless expansion of your lungs. 

While we push against our capacity to no longer hold. 

In doing so we choose to hold, a litte longer.

Long enough to weigh ourselves inside our temple.

Longing for the change and alter.

Cleansing ourselves of weakness only by,

Recognizing its existence.

In doing so for a fallacy.

The fallacy of our thoughts and perception.

For what we see a mere goal to be always intertwines with,

A different journey for all.

Some dive into the depths of unknown waters,

Some revel and rise with the wolves they were thrown to.

Only then can we be tested of all lifes dangers,

For each illusion to undertake a grip of realization.

Any thought or notion of what was, has now shed,

The fallacy peeled off with false sheltered layers.

Our weakness and errors displayed for our comfortability,

Created such silent tides that led us under vicious pull.

We find this creation this experience in our errors,

Finding an ending to hold meaning and venture,

Falling between the mindful chapters of our lives. 

The trails of our tenacious hunger scattered,

Amongst the paths we chose.

Each desire metamorphisized in our expansion,

Turning the fear into wonderous curiosity.

To invite the unknown, greeting it welcomingly,

Grasping it of all might in a sacred palm.

Will we be undone? 

It is our journey to fall into faltitude and blindness,

Misleading our own path into an astray of anew.

We hope to find answers that convey our fears inside,

The shelter we have engraved in sorrow.

By doing so we face the fate of suffering by learning,

To yearn a formation to come yet not be seized.

We learn every effort in its description,

Only then will any answers unveil the puzzled pieces within us.

Only then will we persevere in value and of character.

Only then can we understand how we destroy ourselves.
