Finaly Opened My Eyes

Once i have found
The Meaning of life
I travel to get there
Struggling along the way
Seeing blindly no mirages 
Fleeing from lonleyness
Starving for attention
Scared
Broken
Confused
I am Frightened for remorse
Finding what i came for
That is the meaning
The meaning to excist
Happy
Extatic  
Blown away at the results
Of my findings
Freedom at last
No more suffering
Mind strait
Head strong
I found peacefullness 
I found life

The only way to understand life is to live it, that is a problem something we don't want to do sometimes, but there is a place of the power to do so within each of us, if we will only learn how to draw from it. Thanks for sharing! jm
