Whispers of Eternity: A Quest for Self

Within the Shadows, the Soul's Lament

By MinPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

Lost in deep shadows, aimlessly I wander,

A soul adrift, bearing a heavy burden.

Embraced by eternity, in realms unknown,

Whispers of identity, forever overthrown.

In this vast expanse, I seek in vain,

To reclaim fragments of truth, to ease the pain.

But in this labyrinthine maze of my own mind,

Unraveling questions, I struggle to unwind.

A fleeting image, who am I to be?

A ghostly essence, a mere fantasy?

The mirror of my soul, shattered, fragmented,

Leaving behind a void, where ecstasy is vented.

With each passing moment, I strive to see,

The core of existence, the genuine me.

Yet, the deeper I delve, the less I comprehend,

As my identity slips away, like grains of sand.

Eternity's mystery, a riddle to explore,

A journey without end, answers unsure.

But perhaps, dear seeker, the beauty lies,

In the pursuit itself, where wonder never dies.

For within self-discovery, we find our way,

Through realms of darkness, we may stray.

In this ceaseless quest, we shall uncover,

That understanding oneself is an ever-evolving endeavor.
