As It Was
We are all here today as we
and why were meant to be
Because we all follow our
intended path
Otherwise left alone unto our
own devices to forge our own
We would never end up getting
anywhere at all
Lost and all at sea searching
for dry land and the hope of a
familiar landmark
To use as a point of reference
in order to retrace my way back
home
Whilst all along thinking and
pondering the reason why
i even contemplated leaving
in the 1st place
And will it still be and bring
back those same feelings
i so grew to long and miss
the longer i was away
Why did i choose to leave
What made me want back
Why all and the what
Happened in - between
So many unanswered questions
So many shades of grey blurred
on either side of the black and
white divide
Only after endless contemplating
soul searching and internal deep
reflection
All we are left with to hold
onto in the end and we find
is we are left with nothing but
All exactly is as it was quite
obviously meant to be
I am still me as is the road
from here to there and back
As is all that is now in the
past and in - between set
in stone like Excalibur
Destiny is merely an X placed
and marked out on a treaure
map per say
Who amongst hasn't spent a
large majority wasted our
lifetime chasing like the
rainbows end
Only 1 day to late to admit
and find to our own detrement
and regret
We always new may probably
never have actually existed
anywhere but in our own mind
And if it did or does rather than
have to chase it or go in search
of it
If it was somehow meant to
be or is to be
It will find and come to us
with or without our help
