Born
I was born-
innocent of life,
those baby cries, my first
protests and struggles.
So many times on my journey I have risked all,
shown no respect,
for life.
And I have been searching for some meaning,
now I stand back an observer of my life,
all the paths taken, the twists and turns,
all the deep love,
and all the weeping death.
I need a life of meaning,
a journey with soul and heart.
Never will I find all the answers I seek,
or an answer to all the whys in life,
and that is okay,
for life is a gift,
to not waste,
a treasure that I hold in my hands to create.
