We Are Poem by Shane Engisch

We Are



As swift as they come our reality strikes
we try to define what is around us instead of just existing
we're always asking who made us and what goes beyond the stars
I used to question it all until I realized the truth
every choice that we make puts us on a path to a certain destiny
we make more than one choice to each question we come across
but a part of us is only conscious for one of the choices
because of the world we are in and the people that we are around
we have trouble focusing on all of the options that are acted out
so we look to the one that is easiest to see
we are universal
our own God
we construct all that we have
subconsciously we make everything happen in our movie that we play out
and our conscious acts it out
we come down to this universe as a gray
no tainted thoughts
no influence
no decisions made
completely pure and innocent
and as we live
we begin to gain a blend of black and white
balance is key
we continue an infinite cycle that only multiplies more and more
there is no end
and the beginning was only the beginning of a new thought
time is only a human thing
So one would ask if it never ends then what's the point?
The point is to continue the story
to live
to love
to be happy
Those are the cherished elements
the most powerful elements
they are the best of reality
the rest you must feel so that you may understand
so you may help others see too
we are here together
and when we die
we will still be together
though there will be distance between us
we all will still make a part of the balance
that is our purpose
To just.......be
