The Journey

Life is a journey
In this journey, there are many roads 
Sometimes, some roads all lead in all directions,
All roads, sometimes, lead through one to another 

Sometimes, the roads lead to unexpected ends
The expectation, sometimes, ends with a road 

The journey, will be first, last
You journey only once
May travel with kins,
Wander with strangers

Will know not, in advance,
what to take, for you will know not,
what to expect on the journey, 
for the journey will be virgin, 
the roads unfamiliar

You will discover them, 
on the trails, 
that you may follow 

On this journey,
you must levitate or gravitate 

Levitate, you will arrive at your destination
Gravitate, you may never reach your destination

When All's Said and Done

Suddenly a light and I was all confused
Suddenly I'm here I had no time to choose
Suddenly a pain and I began to cry
How to start a journey without knowing why
 
Now I'm a just small boy so completely lost
Now I'm just flotsam on a tempest tossed
Now I'm being yelled at for everything I do
How to lean the rules and understand what's true
 
Suddenly a book is there for me to read
Suddenly the words are all I really need
Suddenly I'm aware of who I have to be
How to start the journey of understanding me
 
Suddenly the years are passing just like that
Suddenly I’ve found a place to hang my hat  
Suddenly I see the nature of the plan
How to take the journey now I understand



 
Suddenly it's time the journey takes its course
Suddenly I find that I have no remorse
Suddenly enlightened I'm ready for the end
How to accept death as your very best friend
 
No one knows
No one cares
It's only you
The one who shares
