An Ode To Truth
Autumn approaches, as I grow long in tooth;
Seeking throughout my life, the existence of truth.
Answers elude me;
Questions ever more abound;
The absoluteness of right and wrong
never have I found.
Is there meaning in life?
Or should we just live it as it comes?
The answers are different, it seems, for everyone.
Now the end of my journey nears;
Though I approach it without fears;
Wondering if
the beginning of the end
is really the end of the beginning, my friend.
Instead of seeking the truth,
I should have lived it instead,
and not let philosophical thoughts
clutter up my head.
