seekers.

the truth

we are seekers

of the truth

even though

at times

we don't really want to know

but we cannot stand

not to

so we push

and pull

and take it on

the endeavor

to find out

no one wants to be left out

in the dark

we search for light

we want to see

we want to know

we need to know

these questions

and doubts

they chew away

in our bellies

tearing us apart

breaking us down

for me

it's not wanting to miss out

on something

beautiful

and meaningful

i don't like to waste time

i like to spend it

and if i can know

i can act

good or bad

i want resolution

i want to keep moving

static

kills me slowly

and regardless

of how tough life can be

i want to live

i want to see

as much as i can

can i do more?

of course i can

can i explore more options than i do?

definitely

but we all have restraints

situations and responsibilities

that slow us down

put up roadblocks

and detours

in the road

we wish was open

with no limits

but that is simply

not in our reality

so

take the chances you can afford

and take them

wholeheartedly

because some of these chances

may not come again

for a long time

if at all

yes

i am afraid

i have reservations

i have doubts

"will this take me to a better place?"

"or will it take me down?"

but we will never know

unless we take

leaps of faith

i want to know

so badly

what i may or may not be capable of

and as i grow older

the days

the months

the years

they seem to pass faster

and faster

so i try

to grab on

and hold on

not only to what matters

and has mattered for so many years

but also

to what may be

to what may exist out here

for me

this enthusiasm

is not constant

like you

at times

i want to hide under the sheets

and face nothing

but that is just a day

here and there

and maybe

we need that "break"

from time to time

in this world

at this time

it is hard

to keep our PMA

up

but i feel

we must try

things change

they always do

and they always will

that

is out of our control

nothing stays the same

but we have more power

than we sometimes believe we do

i am telling you

because wherever

and whoever you are

i care

and it doesn't matter

if we've met

a thousand times

or just once

you are special

and you are no one

just like me

but your impact

has been felt

by others

regardless of how

insignificant you believe you may be

you matter

the outside world

will always effect us

but we can see through

and be who we are

please believe me

because we are the same

we are all connected

more than you or i know

remain a seeker

of the truth

the truth

that lies

inside of you

and the truth

to be found in this life

because you deserve it

and because

it will bring us together

more so

than you or i could

possibly imagine
