Life is not far
Not as perceived,
This is who we are
We played into illusions
Discussed things that
Didn't have meaning
Like being stuck in traffic
We were always stuck in traffic
Nowhere to go
No home to
Crawl into
There was no safety
In our physical possessions
Though we craved it
Longed for something we thought was
Just out of reach
How we pleaded for
Security
Reckless
We didn't know where our
Hearts rested
Even near
They weren't there
Emptiness and void
We created momentary
Highs that instigated
Lasting lows
Where does the time go?
There is peace in destruction
An endless creation of
The war inside our heads
We continued to tear each other down
With the narrative that it was
Uplifting
Have you ever felt uplifted?
We wondered if this life was
Worth it
With the way we
Lived it
I hope you've come to find
The joy of life's
Divine gift
