Searching for reality,

I find my immaturity

brings on my insecurity,

and I guess it shows...

Life becomes so complicated.

Some people get inebriated;

others get high and feel elated.

They say their minds grow...

Mentality is so complex.

I sense that I might be the next

to lose my soul, and that reflects

my philosophy.

For when I was young,

my mama taught

that doing wrong

would bring me naught,

but tears with pain--

and then I thought:

Rationalize Son!

Set your mind free!

Reading books on love and strife,

I chanced upon The Book of Life,

and once again, the truth of life

surrounded me.

So again I sit and wonder why

I thought I had to simplify

the basic truth that meets the eye--

the One that shouts the newborn cry

and lets the little sparrow fly.

The One who came

to earth to die

for you and me.
