We love to say some things over and over
that they seem true and correct
We believe them to be fact
"You complete me"
"You are my all in all"
"I can't live with out you"
A reminder that there is a part of us living on more than food
That grows accustomed to particular habits and likings

I am my body, mind, soul and spirit
You are like me
You are a body that feeds
A mind that thinks
A soul that yearns for life
A spirit that surrounds the whole of you
Inside and out

As a child you and I were taught to bath to keep clean
To eat food to growth strong
To sleep, take a break and restart
All for the part of us to groom and grow
The body

As a teenager you and I were taught to dream for our future
To yearn for more to come
To be resilient to achieve more than what we are
To use our felt heart to connect to more in life and live to the fullest
All for the part of us to groom and grow
The soul

As youth we search for more
A purpose to define us, give us and let us understand our identity
A life long journey
A part of us that we only wish we started grooming and growing sooner, the one most people forget to carter to and acknowledge
Yet the body and mind will feed the soul, the soul the spirit and the spirit the body
A union that no man can separate

Your spirit will complete you
More than any fellow man, dream or gain will ever
A thirst only you can feel
Only you can describe
Don't let ignorance keep you away,

We can be complete; body, mind, soul and spirit.

Loneliness wanted to take my life.
And night after night I slept in coffins
which carried my empty soul.

But like a gentle spring breeze
have you quenched evil winter dreams.

Withered leaves became green,
bad turned into good,
tenderness penetrated my pores.

I've reached the highest goal
and find no fear in me.

Death can take me now,
but the soul
belongs to the dearest
who sleeps with me.

i know we all have a purpose
in this world
i know that you have to have darkness
in order to have light
but i’ve been in the dark for so long
if there’s one thing
i want to know
it’s if this suffering
will be worth it
because a life without meaning
isn’t what i’m living for
i wish i could just look in to the future to see if this will all make sense eventually

I don't really care about
Atoms, photons or parallel
Universes where you and I could've
worked out differently and existed

cause all we have is here and now
so I'm going to try my best to make
this life worth it, meaningful and
happy for you to live in.
About giving someone your all

still searching for the meaning
still searching for the why
it feels like my only purpose
is to be alive
then die
