If I
was on this Earth for
Nothing
I wish to know
was I
in my light
in what to fight

The mindset of hope and of a child are much alike,
as if true serenity and innocence are connected.
The comfort of a child in their mother's arms is what we long for inside ourselves,
a sense of safety and peace within our own body.
Treat every moment like you are still a child,
Cherish the most insignificant things in life.
Put that shiny rock in your pocket, it may be gold!
With thought, the smallest thing can bring peace and understanding to a life.
Every tiny aspect of nature is a beauty.
......
Staring through a blank page.
Words jumbled in my brain,
Anxiously waiting to be put together.
Placed in such an order of meaning,
A purpose for simple vocabulary.
My head is blank until I put pen to paper.
Thoughts flood me like a stormy stream.
The first line is the most difficult,
The remainder comes naturally
......
I think everything has a meaning,
but what am I meant for?
I feel like I don't have a purpose,
like I'm just here because I have to be.
I want to feel like I have a reason to wake up everyday.
I want a reason to take every breath.

Many who enter our lives
pass through without leaving a mark.
They may have once been important,
we might even have loved them,
but once they're gone, they’re gone.
But there are others who,
when they're gone, for whatever reason,
create a kind of emotional wound.
It’s as if a piece of the puzzle
that is us has been lost, taken.

Our real purpose,
the one that matters most,
is not that of any individual or nation,
but is, instead, the quest over eons
to transcend barbarism and selfishness
and become a more ethical species as a whole.
This will not happen in a day, a year, or even a millennium,
but, if we succeed at all,
will take hundreds of thousands of years.
That doesn't mean what we do now is insignificant, however.

How does one write?
With intent, of course.
My intent?
I was hoping you could tell me.
Digest the pages, bisect the words
Search for a hidden diamond I know is not there.
Pick them out and analyse.
You search in vain
......
The real meaning of life
is to create a life with real meaning.
