Complexity of Life

Another piece that I wrote at the end of High School. This will probably be my last piece for a bit, while I try to tackle a larger piece.

In the beginning, everything always seems so simple
Then we learn the truth that it hides,
We feel anguish in the morning
Suffering during the day
And the unbearable pain at night

What force is this that has sought against us,
Against all humanity
We try to understand
We try to see the light hidden within
But all we see is darkness

The horrific desires that conflict every person
They grab you
And mold you
Until you are on the verge of breaking
All of your ambitions crushed

Within the vast chaos there is a glimmer of hope,
It is disguised so well none can see it,
It cannot even be explained.
We feel its heavy presence
We know what it wants

When you truly understand what you feel
The troubles of the world seem insignificant
Everyday passes by with little reflection
There is no regret, no suffering
Only the pure feeling that you have found it, simplicity
