I
Allow me to race your mind with a story, 
I found a being as I pound the earth, 
The little star in the sky is a replica of her soul, 
But her very passings is a true void of deceit. 
II
My essence resonates with every bit of her presence, 
As her compass leads me to the bearings of her traits, 
I aspire for the flames of her deceit, 
Yet,  I ignored the blame of my desperation. 
III
I plugged my ears to the socket of the creator's word, 
Hoping to find solace in her errors, 
But I was also laced with questions by the creator, 
Why I left my radar unchecked despite the signals, 
Leaving my question unanswered. 
IV
It wasn't a rhetorical though, 
Nor was it a dogma, 
But the nature of life reveals answers to questions unasked, 
As my mind grew the wings of answers to my question. 
V
Life is to love but  not to be blindly led, 
As life is not a problem to be solved, 
So we should know that the secret of true happiness, 
Is not in seeking more
But developing the capacity to enjoy less.
