Three stages

The young, like beasts upon their hands and knees
taken first steps, from different views they see
voices too hollow to form nothing but animal sounds
the phase from which we first started out.

In-between lies but the questioner searching for answers
but with answers more questions comes
now not sure what he or she should be
the beast from which they first did spring
or yet but a person who waits for love to touch

And after all the answers come the god form he or she becomes
knowing now the means of life not questioning the beast inside

Lovely, philosophical write.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

A very interesting, look into the evolution of an age-old theme.  I really enjoyed it
