What does it all mean?
I’ve searched for answers all my life
I hope to understand before I exit
I yearn to know the truth
My existence should have purpose
I expect to leave a mark
I desire to comprehend reality
I wish to recognize integrity
There’s honesty I’ve yet to know
I’ll seek out goodness and decency
I just need to know
What does it all mean?
Questions to which we seek answers all our lives. Great poem
