SILENCE
I listen to the trees
I feel life in their leaves
As I look up at the sky
I lie in silence
Hearing nature instead of me
I ask the question man has asked for ages
Why am I here?
Why am I here at all?
Now day fades away
The stars glisten and seem so far from reach
I keep my sorrow at bay
Hoping it will fade
That my mind wont start to wonder
That I wont go astray
That I wont lose my path,and suffer natures wrath.
I feel life in their leaves

I lie in silence
Hearing nature instead of me
I ask the question man has asked for ages
Why am I here?
Why am I here at all?
Now day fades away
The stars glisten and seem so far from reach
I keep my sorrow at bay
Hoping it will fade
That my mind wont start to wonder
That I wont go astray
That I wont lose my path,and suffer natures wrath.

Nature's wrath, such a common fear when asking why any of us are here.
A man said to the universe, 'Sir I exist!'
And the universe replied, 'That it me, implies no obligation'
Henry David Thoreau.
"God is Dead."
New York Times
"Gaia alone knows the path of my sin. God stopped listening.:"
Me.

"That it me' was a typo. Should've read 'That, in me, implies no obligation.' Quoting others should always involve proof-reading. I'm guilty of rushing.
You really have a way with words.You speak volumes in what you say and who you quote.I call things how I see them.Honesty is not easy to find.Nether is being blunt and sincere,good things are hard to find and harder to spot.I found someone good.Someone who share's my beliefs,He's a true viking a protector and a warrior.He cares for me as I do for him.Nature and what people perceive in nature and forces beyond us are tough to understand,but there is no grey in good and evil.It is black and white.It's easier to be evil and to be out for your self and hurt others,than it is to be good and heal and sacrifice out of love.I rather take the hard road.I rather be good and never be what I despise.You watch enough of the news you see it and hear it.It used to over whelm me.Now I just know what to expect evil has the leading role.Good things are rare especially in people.Nature is so far from what humans are and do.Some say when a person commits a viscous and evil crime,that it's animal.NO IT'S NOT!
IT'S HUMAN!We are viscous creatures by nature.But we all have a choice to be cruel or to be kind.We all know the difference between right and wrong.We live and die by the choices we make.All of it contributes and exist in the world.
