Food for thought
Below are some peoems to get you thinking... Read and Review!
This one I wrote today. Not really sure what mad me come up with it but it poses a lot of really good questions and I think its beautiful...
Time
Time, in its endless search for a conclusion,
Has found itself many beginnings,
But never the completion.
What will happen when time finally reaches the door,
And slams it in our faces,
As we stand confused.
No clocks to watch, no order to the passing moments,
Eternity will end now, and last forever,
For each eternity is different.
For one, eternity may be a kiss,
Another, maybe the dentist,
Both ends of the spectrum.
Time will last for eternity, and eternity only for a short time,
But if time slams the door, where is eternity,
To each his own.
Time is important in dealing with destiny,
If your destiny follows an event,
Does not the event follow time?
If time and eternity are one, and destiny follows time,
Does it take an eternity to find your destiny,
Or does destiny follow it's own order?
Ah, but order brings chaos! And, chaos brings order,
Destiny... does it bring order or chaos?
But to survive, we must have both.
For if we never had chaos, would we understand order?
Would we understand chaos without it?
Maybe...
Maybe our destiny is truly finding order in the chaos,
Or... finding the chaos in order,
But, doesn't that take time?
Would you love me?
Would you find me absurd
If I should let the truth fall from my lips
The veils of deception cast aside
Would you think me weak
If I allowed my tears to cascade freely
In streams that coursed down my cheeks
Would you still say I'm beautiful
If I stood naked before you
Baring my soul for you to see
Would you gaze upon me with tenderness
If I danced in the darkness in my heart
And shied away from the light of the righteous
Would your love for me flourish
If I was a destitute waif, impoverished
Because life's meaning has passed me by?
Would you still yearn to kiss me
If I was distressed by illness
Not of the body, but of the mind
Would you still believe me to embody perfection
If my exterior shattered and left
Not a girl, but a woman with child
Would you walk by my side
If God's grace had left me
And the world frowned upon me with scorn
Would your devotion fade to nothing
If I spoke of the strife that
Scorches my skin with scars
Would your words still be faithful
If I allowed you to corrupt me
To travel to places no man has been before
Would you dare to permit me
To place the weight of my future on your frame
Eternally intertwined with your own
Would you ever forsake my heart
If I let you hold it in your palm
To love, honor and cherish
For all the days of your life?
