We do seek it, in our every day,

wake up, stare into the sunlight,

recognize a world begins today

what we do forever then might

~

hold a key to our solemn vow

to be true to our singular heart

without realizing we cannot allow

our lives to become torn apart.

~

For I do every now and again

decide to trust my instinct

and yet every time another when,

a moment riddled and succinct

~

greets me along the avenue,

I decide to steer rather close,

I like the edge of any venue

sets my life in motion. To lose

~

everything would be to suggest

all of our efforts are pointless

yet somehow we survive lest

we be called more human less.

~

I do feel exhaustion when spent

in this mechanical body I rent.
