The Saying Goes ...

The saying goes
Everything happens for a reason
Is this true?
No one knows
Exactly what the future holds
We choose to believe
Because our lives
Are filled with confusion
Uncertainty and disillusion
We pause to contemplate
And deliberate the concept of fate
Countless hours into the night
Hoping that we might
Find an answer that fits
One that makes sense
Of all the little bits that
Are supposed to come together
Yet, I have never
Questioned whether or not
Fate exists.
I believe in it.
I can close my eyes and trust
My life has a path to travel
I choose not to try
And unravel the why
Or the what, when or who.
However, I do
Have one hope in mind
That maybe, in time
I will get to be with you.
