Life

Its all about the question,
the essence of right or wrong.
Where are we going?
Who can come along?

I feel empowered, stating
my claim.
Not a man who doesnt know
where he is, and where his domain.

Life is a journey not a destination
Its all about the getting there,
than the how you got along.
Keeping up the illusion, striving
to play along.

The keeping up of an illusion can be soul destroying when one knows it to be such but we are pretty much stuck in it until we choose not to be.  Just a thought.

Thanks for the comments, the "illusion" was a few years back now since then I've had a long, hard look at myself and my life, and hopefully now I am what I am, no pretence.
