I turn to you, and ask in earnest,
What does this world amount to?
Passions striving, emotions raging,
thoughts swelling, eternally craving,
The mind is an infinite source, this world will fall
It's secrets, it's creativity, I have yet to hold;
Ideas churning, mind spilling,
Ecstatic delight, raw feeling;
godlike placed
eternally faced,
Behold the contradiction that is me,
Destroyer,
Creator;
God is but the aspiration of Me!"

What does this world amount to, if I find not this?
I pause, no answer,should i dismiss?
These horrifying thoughts, regain my state of bliss?
But I feel it to the core, something i will miss.

what is the worth of the world?

Contributed By: socialmisfit

I turn to you, and ask in earnest,
What does this world amount to?
Passions striving, emotions raging,
thoughts swelling, eternally craving,
The mind is an infinite source, this world will fall
It's secrets, it's creativity, I have yet to hold;
Ideas churning, mind spilling,
Ecstatic delight, raw feeling;
godlike placed
eternally faced,
Behold the contradiction that is me,
Destroyer,
Creator;
God is but the aspiration of Me!"

What does this world amount to, if I find not this?
I pause, no answer,should i dismiss?
These horrifying thoughts, regain my state of bliss?
But I feel it to the core, something i will miss.
