Wanderings

August 26, 1992

By Dianne de la CruzPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

The more I listen

The more I know myself

The more I have

The more I have to worry about

The more I have to lose

Less is better

Pain is pleasure

When nothing is something

The meaning of life shines through

Glimmers of hope 'round every corner

Floating beside shadows of despair

Yet both bring awareness

In time of contentment and strife

The time to move on

To new lessons along

Life's many paths of learning

Drawing closer to truth

Reaching new depths

Reaching new heights

Traversing treacherous treks
