Here, Now, Forever

Happiness and sunshine..
Thunderstorms and regret..
Butterflies and daisies..
Dry branches and black roses..
A smile..
A frown...
Up..
Down..
How you doing?
I'm alright.
I can fight all i want..
but the happiness must recess..
that is the law of our existence..
Many can fall upon the wayside while others continue cheerily on.
They say, in meditaion one can achieve nirvana..
but even afterwards.. another day arrives..
another wave of drudgery and anger..
Whaddya' say we go and cheat a little??
Whaddya' say we have an adventure and feel purely happy for a few hours??
Is it really much different from focusing the microscope ever so far?
Shouldnt it be our choice?
I suppose it should be left unsaid, I suppose...
The consequences are ours alone to face..
I hope it is not what you thought..

Very thought provoking and well done. Many levels here. I like this work a lot.

I can't control
my destiny
I trust my soul,
my only goal
is just to "be"
