    Relax
    Breathe
    Is this relevant?
    Who can define relevance?
    Only in our own minds
    Where overanalytical thought reigns supreme
    Do we have the audacity
    To justify anything

    We are all just running circles
    No special division of knowledge
    Is kept in a silver box
    Waiting
    Anticipating
    The arrival of a new messiah
    Was the old one authentic?

    What can we do
    But try our best
    In vain of vanity
    To find some half pint truths
    That may best explain
    Questions without a real remainder

    Perception is reality's only outlet
    Who can say from one moment to the next
    If any of this is real?

    I believe
    Therefore I know
    In my own reassured mind
    Truths that may one day
    Be uncovered as ignorant misperception
    This doesn't bother me any more
    I'm not haunted by the what if syndrome
    If I'm wrong lesson learned
    But I'm comfortable where I am
    And how it all looks to me
    That is the real test

    Yes, to the lungs and to the heart, yes, yes & dissolve the mind.
    Melt into a god-puddle.

    You have excellent structure! Awesome job, I loved reading it. Do you write much in prose? You'd be very good at it.
