that we are

there are times more than not
that we are
encompassed in a world that is difficult to understand
thus we are rocketed/shuttled to places
that challenge us or perhaps even attempt
to realign our lives around them
however, we should embrace ourselves
so we can take hold of what is trying to surround us
as to better understand what it is that we so desire.
it is the balance and the achievement
of the equaling of ourselves that forwards us to a place of where,
now, how and why.
it is freighting to investigate, to challenge,
to change our course, to expand or grow
yet explore the unknown to finally perhaps reach
our goals, dreams, aspirations and desires,
thus attempting us to achieve the fruition
of such welcomed self awareness.
our eyes see…..
our minds question
and once in a great while
our hearts get bruised, fractured and splintered
so to carry the burden of non exploration
becomes a factor that most likely could or will
haunt us for a life time
for at best, at least , at most, at worst, bit by bit, by degrees
it seemed that way
