These perspectives
Push you further
To the edge of the known
Into the paths
We aren’t meant to walk.
What is the point of it all?
Choosing what part of yourself
To save from the house fire.
No matter what you retrieve
You will come back to find
Something you cared for
Covered in ash.
How can someone choose?
Who can answer that?
Choosing life or ambition
Is ambition not life?
Is ambition to live not enough?
What are we even fighting for anymore?
Telling ourselves everyday
“This is why you are here”
But do we really believe that?
Or do we believe our own lies?
One day
You will find the truth,
Your meaning in life.
Looking back you will see
How the struggle forged the hero
How it was all meant to be
You will see.
