Post-War Proposition

There is a resounding desire and urgency to change.

Over and over again.
Over and over again.
Over and over again.

When, when will you learn that your actions can either detriment or enhance your well-being.
Death comes before Life, and as such, must I die before I can truly Live?
We pursue that fluttering pleasures of this world for naught.
You have seen, yet you do not see as you should.

ARE YOU BLIND TO THE TRUTH MY INTIMATE FRIEND?

No, truly, it is I who is blind.

I have no sight of the true Reality, this illusion so real, drawn before my eyes like a cinema, of lights and smoke. My eyes glaze over the glimmering lies and their ephemeral satisfaction, my mind seeking comfort in the way of the world and the way it perceives it and my body weakened and succumbed to its numbing senses.

Truly, I have lived a life full of deceit, and self-deceit.
Truly, I have not learnt my place when I still hold onto my place.
Truly, I am a being still drowning in mistakes and wrong-doing.

Verily, I seek the way to find Truth, the Truth and to abide by it.
Verily, I seek to lose myself in knowing my self.
Verily, I need aid to save me from myself.
