Understanding

We can't see past the decision
we don't  understand
lost in our minds
trapped by the possibilities
where will it take us
how will we know
for answers to unfurl
look deep in your soul
we have trouble seeing past the decisions
we have yet to understand
the picture we start to see
though the focus is not quite clear
as our hearts develop 
as we learn within to grow
the answers are even closer now
as we dig thru the layers in our soul
we see clearly thru decisions made
knowing now understanding is not needed 
a portrait in front of our eyes
the most beautiful sight ever since
grown to our fullest potential
now comfortable with our own
the true answers lie within our hearts
but eternal knowledge comes from the soul
