Boundaries of Humanity

The road that we all follow, in the pursuit of mankind, Often leads to more questions, that need to be defined. It's a journey that we seek, even if it is only to find. Allowing us to see clearly, not to remain forever blind. Along the way it can be deafening, by all the noise to hear. Yet one must listen carefully, with a discretionary ear. It's a path to be learned from, while some others may ignore. Where consequences may endure forever, like never before. Since being imperfect, we often fail to eventually achieve, To set the bar higher, to a new standard that we can believe. Within the railings, obstacles exist, between the lines of love and hate. Testing the burden that we can lift, towards the enormous weight. In the shadows we must also discern, between the crazy and the sane. With judgements that are measured against the inhumane. So then we're left to reason, between what's real and what's fake. All the while maybe not realizing, what's all that's at stake. As our judgement tries its best, to know the truth versus a lie. We'll try to stay within the guidelines given, before we lay down and die.
