My mind drifts; it floats, it wanders
It soars, it questions, and it ponders
I travel all space and time
In the labyrinths of my mind
It sees the beauty of the plains and trees
Of happiness, of truth, of love
It rejoices in all the victories
That I have in my God above
It’s peaceful when it’s been renewed
It is violent when it’s not
It is eager to learn all things new
And all that it’s forgot…
Brutal battles break each day
Personalities fighting for control
Casualties in the carnage lay
In the murky darkness of my soul
In combative contrast they collide
The darkness and the bright
Will the iniquities be justified?
Will the valiant win this fight?
Once again the intrepid win
But the struggle is not finished
Malice and sin will return again
When their armies have been replenished
In its countless caves and catacombs
My mind buries secrets deep
Never will they leave their tombs
Forever they will sleep
It may be burdened but it is free
It seeks beauty, wisdom, knowledge
It learns from everything I see
The universe is my college
My mind drifts; it floats, it wanders
It soars, it questions, and it ponders
I travel all space and time
In the labyrinths of my mind
Well welcome back!
ReplyDeleteI love this poem. Your ability to craft an earnest message in such a lyrical way really, truly amazes me. Looking forward to seeing more from you soon!
Thank you. I'm trying to get to the point where I'm posting more consistently but I've hit a few speed bumps. Besides that there is just so much I want to do and not enough hours in the day haha.
