a destination
challenges and setbacks to overcome
waves of frustration
Impulsive excitement
exploration
prohibition
stupefaction
molten iron sinks
into one core
pearl of love
lurks in the seas
assumptions &
preconceived notions
congestion and gestalt
missing
a treasure without
meaning
contrastingly
diamonds are aesthetic
&
most precious
but can't provide
a warm embrace
carrying a banyan tree on my back
professional taste
&
art of love and respect
or
intimate
memory
huddled in shadows
no more
drowning in cares
no more
exhausted souls
doubt and restlessness
thirst for food and drink
or
a state of despair
crying and sobbing
learning
persistence
finding out
the purpose
grasp
beauty and satisfaction
perpetual pleasure
of
people
animals
places
or object
