Desire And Question's

Is it true,

what Schopenhauer said–


that behind the eyes,

and into the bones,

lays mostly

desires

and

questions?


And is it true,

we will never satisfy our desires,

or get our questions answered?


For him,

he looked at the mysteries and our unfulfilled desires,

as a dreadful quality of existence;

but I,

I like

that

we

don’t

know

everything.

There is beauty in seeking answers,

and accepting our human limitations–

it frees us,

it doesn’t chain us,

like Mr. Schopenhauer thought.


In the mysteries and questions

lay the gaps for the mystical to seep through,

and there is something magical

about believing magic might be possible.


-C.H.
