The journey our minds see through our eyes
No one else sees the world as another
Through hardships endured or kinder times
Every thought and vision different from others
Trying to understand the simplest things
From a young age difficult to see
The things I thought simple not at all
The hardest issue learning to be me
Living even changes what once was perceived
Providing definition to learn what was
Experience helping to better understand
Realization for the root of the cause
Somewhere along the way losing self
No guarantees giving direction
Only more questions to confuse the way
Difficulty seeing your own reflection
You’ll come to know you don’t have answers
Living becomes ever more complex
So much should have been simple questions
Difficulties what you’ve come to expect
When you accept the hard times will come
Never from the beginning have you had control
Give up trying to understand why or how
Then about life you have begun to know
