Thoughts



THOUGHTS
Deep within my ambiguous thoughts
There lies the path that is best taken
Swilling, spinning inscrutable knot
Dancing with our eyes closed
Love and luck forever conflicted
Drowning in the river of time
Is chance a felting illusion
Do we hear what is spoken
Do we listen to what we hear
Many thoughts so few changes
Is life’s beauty in this confusion
Can it be this blind ambition
The colors glorify the human race
Mindful listening to your sincere love
We feel joy through this wonder
Would we know happiness without pain
Would we feel complete without empty
We need mistakes to know what’s right
What is fun when always won
Turn around reach out your hand
Deep within my ambiguous thoughts
There lie the path that is best taken
 My brother's hand
