Something Tells Me I Knew

Almost like I didn’t know until
I knew I already do all along
Because truth cannot be told but feel
By truths we adhere to learn from

The further I go the closer I went
But I cannot dispel… I’m only to compel
I can only comprehend and blend
To finally watch myself fall and fell

Perhaps the longest loneliness I’m to suffer or triumph
That is over… when I learn how to see the truth
 And not by chance with proof to reason
It’s simple when everything is nothing to lose

Living an expected life isn’t an easy one
Living an unexpected life for yourself is even harder
There really isn’t anywhere when everywhere is nowhere to run
Until a truth perhaps you can finally realize that’s no better

And I knew the truth
I can tell you for sure its terrifying
To not win but why do we need to lose?
Almost like I didn’t know until realizing…

Will you question your life’s path moving along
I always do when I’m told truths because I need to feel
What makes sense to the world might not for me where I come from
Somehow… I have always knew if not until…
……………….

Yet again, another great piece! It gives me the feeling like I have seen something, but that something was only passing by the corners of my sight. To know that you knew, yet felt that you didn't knew.
