I’ve thought ... in the hope that I will enlighten others
With the knowledge I’ve gathered from my journey through life.
I’ve thought ... therefore, I exist.
I exist to explore the unknown
Regions of Earth and the inner sanctum
Of the mind’s light and dark zones
Of dreams and nightmares of the night.
That dark night deep in the pit of no return.
An endless, timeless, formless, mindless
Place of the sane and insane
Trying to escape themselves ...
Trying to forget the evil fears that lurk just beyond
The mind’s conscious state of grace.
I’ve thought ... in order to defeat the evil
That roams this bountiful, serene green domain
Of human bliss—Of human need.
Though, our worldly garden has turned into a cesspool
Of greed, murder, famine and war.
Oh, God!
’Tis a never-ending succession of war.
When will we find peace?
Will man ever show mercy toward his fellow beings?
Will humanity ever be humane again?
I just want to live and let live ...
Am I asking for too much, Lord?
I’m waiting for an answer ... right here, right now!
