Oh, how I’ve walked.
A stark, mighty, and narrow path.
Questioning each step along the way.
Aware of it all, I instead embraced apathy,
and paid empty tribute to a blessed life.
…with arrogance instead of confidence
…in love without compassion
…riddled with unfounded fear
…reluctant
…speaking words without action
…spreading lies instead of truth
…in peace for no reason
…angry…with no outlet
…prideful but unconvinced
…envious instead of honorable
…enlightened instead of passionate
…mindful, but soulless
Oh, how I’ve walked this ferocious path.
And with each new step,
it’s painfully clear now,
that had I not wavered,
I may have missed the point.
