Human Spirit – Susan Varo 2-17-2008

I did not ask myself today

Who’d come with me to fly away

I’ve learned that others will not take flight

Though I’ve tried asking with all my might

I know I used to be that way

But things have changed me to who I am today

Some create a path then don’t go near it

Sometimes it’s all about the human spirit

Many put dreams and desires and so much more

In a room filled with fear then close the door

Some things aren’t meant to be kept on hold

But some stay this way until they are old

Regrets at the door when they become aware

And look in to find just emptiness there

It’s too late now for some to hear it

Sometimes it’s all about the human spirit

There are others who never look to the past

For some the future came too fast

Some may find their journey’s end

Some may return some never again

So many ask what there life is to be

Others just wonder but that’s just not for me

I may not know the answers I too have some doubt

So I explore for solutions to what it’s about

There may be no purpose for what we’re here for

Just some unfinished business and nothing more

It’s not just about the question why

But how we live until we die

Many roads are left open for some I suppose

Like me and many and then there are those

That will never journey because they fear it

But it’s all about the human spirit
