What Inspires Me: the Fruits of Life

Makes you surpass your sane emotions
Beyond the feeling of unsure notions
Blurs the distinction between truth and lies
Puts meaning into hallow cries

Some seemingly fresh
But not explicitly dressed
Some familiar enough
But notably tough

Something only we notice
But not summer solstice 
Something only we can see
Or so we believe it to be

Someday revealing
Our own destination
Someday concealing 
Our true intention

Destitute of any pretense to wit
No way to grasp it, best to accept it
Outside the box, an alternative idea
Ever only yours to some degree
