The Encounter
I
Allow me to race your mind with a story,
I found a being as I pound the earth,
The little star in the sky is a replica of her soul,
But her very passings is a true void of deceit.
II
My essence resonates with every bit of her presence,
As her compass leads me to the bearings of her traits,
I aspire for the flames of her deceit,
Yet, I ignored the blame of my desperation.
III
I plugged my ears to the socket of the creator's word,
Hoping to find solace in her errors,
But I was also laced with questions by the creator,
Why I left my radar unchecked despite the signals,
Leaving my question unanswered.
IV
It wasn't a rhetorical though,
Nor was it a dogma,
But the nature of life reveals answers to questions unasked,
As my mind grew the wings of answers to my question.
V
Life is to love but not to be blindly led,
As life is not a problem to be solved,
So we should know that the secret of true happiness,
Is not in seeking more
But developing the capacity to enjoy less.
