Alone I wonder, with thought I give A figment in this vast universe Assigned a life which we can choose to live And make good of what is not rehearsed
All things must be true The actions that we do Our sight is a vision of what we see We hear with our ears those things that might be Can all of this be a part of me? And how do I fit in?
I ponder at how our minds can grasp the thoughts of which we dwell on And conjure up creations past and pitfalls that we fell on
All things must be real The emotions that we feel Our mind is a mass of knowledge stored Our mouths ask questions of our Lord Please don't let them go ignored Somehow I must fit in
What will happen when we die? Will our lifeless minds just cease? I guess life's one big puzzle And me? I'm just a piece
All things are what they are They must be, for we have come this far Ours is not to wonder why How we'll live or when we'll die Just LIVE and do your best to try to let your peace fit in.

About this poem:
As an adolescent my curious mind contemplated our existence. Eventually my thirst for knowledge has answered many of my queries sufficiently (always researching tangible, logical, historical & scientific EVIDENCE). But having an unquenchable poet's soul led to this bit of food for thought from back then.
