what do u feel
what do u think
i guess every day
i wonder i think
is it possible to say
what i feel
what i think
what i do every day
do u wonder
have you ever
felt
everything and nothing
all in the same moment
have you ever
understood
everything and nothing
all in the same universe
have u ever
known ur purpose
ur existance, your reason
for being
have you felt perfection
completion, no question
without reason
i search, i look
for all these things
i work, i search
for ur being.

Why does my soul want to write
about sunsets, raindrops, and never ending nights,
Instead I tabulate and contemplate
What life would be like if I chose instead to create.
Rather than count every penny, nickel, and dime
I want to document and write about what has become mine
Life and loves and lessons I have learned
The daily routines and scars I have earned.
My fair share of hurts, I have acquired no doubt
But there is not one I would be without
Because they have made me who I am and what I believe
And without that, I wouldn't be just plain ol me. :)

A baby cries nearby, parents trying to soothe
Music plays overhead, trying to create the mood
People conversing and sharing here and there
Caught up in their own world without a care
Its election year and all of the white men
try to frame the issues that matter to you and me
but in the end things will always continue to be
mostly about those around us and what is immediately
I want to know not just my world but yours too
I want to learn what matters to you and you and you
Will you reach out your hand and explore the unknown
Will you let yourself go and let your mind roam
Just think the world is big and people are many
But what we have in common is plenty
Family, friends, work, and play
That is everything people worry about today
So stop in your daily trudge of obligations
Look, listen, and be willing to say saluations

— The End —
