Musings Vol. 12

My soul wanders these lands
Searching for a dream
My dreams wander these lands
Searching for hope
Awakening as it may seem
These horizons shine light upon me
Battling the darkness within
Choices govern this battle
Bruises and scars
Cut and bleeding
Contemplating
Wondering
Thinking
No action taken
Sitting still
Yet this battle ensues
An arena of souls wandering the world
Desiring its awakening
Why do we make the choices we make?
Why must consequence govern my choices?
Action and reaction are no equal
Understanding is a concept not a fact
To these dreams I give my fears
To these hopes I grant a wish
Everlasting in its intention
It shines as a star of hope
A beacon to you
It outshines your doubt
Alas to what outcome does this hold?
Truth be told in lies
Earnest hopes and dreams lie here
To what avail do we hope to accomplish our dreams?
Souls intertwine and we search
Together or alone
What purpose do we fulfill?
To what heights do we soar to be happy?
What in our name do we wish to accomplish in our lifetimes?
Forsaken are we in this world full of hopes and dreams
To what avail?
To what means to an end?
Do you sit still knowing what you know?
Do you take action?
Consequence
Will you abide by its rules?
Or will it govern your life?
