This person that I am
Unburdened by definition
No word can imprison me
Free from needing a purpose
Im allowing myself to just live
Going with the motions
Relinquishing illusions of control
Existence is sufficient enough
Ignorance is not safe from meaning
Even if you cannot find one
Though its irrelevant that you do
Desperately seeking explanations
for every sentence, in every chapter, in every book
Even the ones that should be judged by their cover
Our nature is to make sense of everything
In doing so, we are left with more questions than answers
Constantly complicating simplicity
We lead ourselves into a labyrinth
Losing sight of why we chose to enter this maze in the first place
Don't drive yourself insane
Random and without reason
This unpredictable life at times occurs beyond our understanding
Allow its unraveling waves to meet your shores without interrogation
Beauty gets lost questioning
When the point is to feel and embrace the moment
Let the tenderness of your heart quiet the chaos of the mind
