Journey

Any journey undertaken for a purpose is not always about the purpose
Some surprises wait for you to pick up the clues on your way
Destination no doubt lies waiting for you with arms wide open
Some conversations have a way of carving their memories in you

Every journey has a beginning and will inevitably come to an end
Some moments still manage to weave a story written for you
Strangers meet, part as friends, some encounters hard to name
An underlying understanding that it's a short-lived relation

The journey over - conversations broken, goodbyes abrupt
Some thoughts and some feelings take time to reel in
Reality and comfort of your world hits you simultaneously
The journey, now forgotten, in fragments will come alive

Wisdom (Rock Bottom)

A steady fall
Soon I will hit rock bottom

A faint call
Soon I will find my wisdom

A thin line in between
If I rise up or give in

The mind playing tricks
laying future bricks

Visions come visiting
Memories are flooding

To emerge a better man
To do all that I can

'No pain, no glory'
This is my story

A loss I chose to gain
Going beyond my pain

I hit rock bottom
but I found my wisdom

Learning from my mistakes
and all the choices I make

Live life as long as we are breathing
For this life is meant for living
