Voyage of Self-Discovery

I tick to my own clock
I drum to my own beat
I tune to my own radio
Till there’s nothing I don’t understand

I go down my own stream
Of isolation and adventure
Endlessly and forever
Always fascinated

Lost in the depths
Yet always finding myself
Secrets unraveled
Thoughts discovered

There are times
That I don’t like
What I find
But I can’t pretend
That I didn’t see it
So I leave it be

And there are times
Where I am marveled
At why and how
Things haven’t been found

There’s always more to see
Never less to discover
Floating on and on
Endlessly and forever

The trees always climb
The storms keep on raging
But I just row my boat
Eternally aging

And in this forever stream
We forget it leads to an ocean
Although it carries our very essence
We must remember that it will cease

This is a poem about learning about yourself. It's about going out into the world alone, and just learning about who you are and accepting it. Or changing it. And your very essence is something that's so vast and there's always more that you haven't seen or felt, so it's just endless.
