These are a set of poetic/prose expressions
I was a normal and simple child once,
Never knowing what the meaning was to live.
I accepted it all heart and soul,
As if I were in a dream
That I was rudely awakened from.

Thrust into a world that I barely knew, but trusted nonetheless.
One light, a lantern that shone brightly,
Was my only guide and solace
For the longest time.
Before I could comprehend
In all consciousness of the dark,

There was a deep knowledge
I knew from the depths of my soul
In my limitless universe.
I never questioned anything in my previous life,
Before enlightenment caressed me.

Never pondered,
Never asked,
As if I knew my destiny...
And it knew which road I was going to take
That held so many possibilities.
All of this wisdom slowly deteriorated

As I neared the shadows of reality,
And left my truth for something completely old and familiar.
There, I would lose my path and find it again
As frequently as a butterfly flaps its wings
Against the winds of change

To where flowers lost their petals
And bloomed never more.
Such was and is the fate
In every corner of my essence
That sway in the wake of heaven.
This is where my story ends and the beginning of my own starts...
