Into my mind
I did dive
Trying to find the answer
For why we're alive

I looked through my knowledge
That I've learned from the start
The answer wasn't there
So I went to my heart

My heart I questioned
The answer do you know?
There was no reply
So I went to my soul

When I was there
The truth I did find
The answer we all
Will learn in time

Wow! You took a subject that is so undefinable and laid it out in perfect form!!
Really nice job, my friend!!  


Today is a gift....
That is why they call it
'the Present'!

really loved this poem, bumping this up  

When I was there
The truth I did find
The answer we all
Will learn in time

This is the hour when the mysteries emerge
A strangeness so hard to reflect A moment so
moving goes straight to your heart" JOy divison

Same verse that Brian picked...although I liked the whole poem the last verse was perfectly put from quill to paper so to say.

When I was there
The truth I did find
The answer we all
Will learn in time

Knowing the answer may take away the heart of innocence that we need to be able to accept what is really there.  Everything for a reason my friend.....like the mystery of some aspects....gives room to exercise the process of thought, hope, and dedication in life.
