The only thing I know

Is that I know nothing

And that I have no control

Over what life brings me

The only control

Is how you react

Internal being

Peace of mind

You bring

To yourself

And those

You touch

Along the way

The only thing I know

Is that I know nothing

And that I have no control

Over what life brings me

Deep wisdom relates

No matter what you try

To change

Life takes a turn, always

Ambushes all your

Best laid plans

Leaves you devastated

Stranded at the gate

That’s when you learn

To believe in fate

But that’s a crock

Over-turned

Like a vase

Knocked over

By that lover

In flight

Who never

Returns to you

The only thing I know

Is that I know nothing

And that I have no control

Over what life brings me

West meets East

But West never understands

That death is part of life

And life is a cycle never ending

With that, begins understanding

We are not alone

We are part of a Whole

Two sides of one coin

Flip one

You get the other

Side of the soul

The only thing I know

Is that I know nothing

And I have no control

Over what life brings me

Controlled fate

As some contenders pose

Is not a choice

But free will

Outside of walls imposed

Seems like the better deal

I choose that.

The only thing I know

Is that I know nothing

And that I have no control

Over what life brings me

Except what I believe.
