wander

we wander,
we wonder,
we ponder,
we plunder,
we flounder,
we thunder,
we win,
and we blunder.

we search,
we imagine,
woo princesses,
fight dragons,
we fall without wanting,
we risk in our flaunting,
we hurt and we learn,
build bridges and burn.

but we shouldn't lose hope,
just widen the scope,
don't look for "the one",
nor from your love run.

pain is the process,
love is the progress,
fear is the squalor,
risk is the valor.

peace cannot be without conflict,
and we cannot be fulfilled without emptiness.
