fauxcroft

Life is a constant state of absurdity

Balanced and rooted in expectation,

Believing life is preordained is wishful thinking

Whereas understanding it’s yours for the creating,

Is far more powerful and far more fulfilling

Taking charge and responsibility for your life,

Opens up a multitude of directions and paths

And by being and remaining authentic to this task,

The discovery within it will continue to last

The freedom gained is so immense it makes you gasp,

And though it seems to cultivate at times isolation

It honours the spirit of true external annihilation,

Which lays to waste the social absurdities of what is free

That lies not in materialistic needs, envy and greed,

But in self-determination and self-authority

And that explodes the creativity within you and me,

To understand the life we get and the one we lead

It is not set out but requires our desire to believe,

That we must create our own dreams and write our own stories,

Remembering all the time is all about the journey,

Because the ending is defined and it cannot be changed,

But we can decide how life can be lived up to this end.
