Muses of Life

Folder:

Prevailing

And what I desire

Isn’t time

But what time justly gives

Moments lost

Yet treasured in darkness

A home in me; they live

And what I crave

Is of no value

Where dollars make no sense

Afflictions united

Where dreams blossom

Precious time well spent

And what I lust

Is not of flesh

But something to shock my core

A riveting tale

So wholesomely made

Never needing anything more

Peace

Solitude is peace.

You don’t have to listen to others.

When you’re alone,

You can shut out humanity’s corruption.

Nightfall holds no meaning.

If you’re at peace, let be.

Sunlight holds no meaning.

If you’re at peace, let be.

How peaceful it is to be alone.

To be alone is to meditate.

To meditate is to see truth.

To see truth is to be at peace.

You don’t have to listen to others.

A family isn’t needed for peace.

The light that lives inside,

You’ll see it even better when alone.

Reside alone with only the light.

With the light by your side,

You will feel no loneliness,

Only solitude, only peace.

If you seek the light,

You won’t find it in people.

If you seek the dark,

Finding the light will be easy.

If you find the light,

You won’t need people.

You’ll have the light,

And you’ll know peace.

Should you forget about people?

No, even though you don’t need them,

Remember this,

They might need you.

Live for peace.

Live knowing death.

All life dies, yet lives on.

Death comes and peace remains.

Author's Notes/Comments:

I hope people can make some sense of what I was saying. Sometimes I just spill my emotions onto a page and end up not sure if it's even logical.

I felt like writing this because in the past few years I've dwelled on the darkness I see in myself and other people - the corruption. I see so much of it that I tend to lose sight of what's good. For a while I dwelled on the darkness and felt content with hatred. I hated the human race. I wanted to watch it die because in my mind everyone, including myself, deserved it. But now I've found peace in solitude and prayer/meditation. Even though I still easily see bad things in myself and other people I've become a little more numb to them. I'm more able to highlight the good things in people. I've done this by turning not to people themselves, but to something higher, much higher. I crave solitude and time alone so that I can reflect on this, and so that I'm not so sickened by the world around me.
