Poetry of existentialism

Fascinated and inspired
by the jewels of the mind
to contemplate the mystery of life
abandon on the seashore
to see the world as though blind
the magnet in the clouds
compels one to use the full potential
with faith
whose intelligence to transform the world
and shape the future
give you no reason to hesitate and wait

existentialism encapsulates the willpower
to succeed
beneath the ocean of the mind
the pearls of wisdom
sits on a carpet indeed
the shield of truthfulness
will dispel the darkness
as the sun illuminates the earth
to reflect the peacefulness of heaven
The Gods come down
and take birth

the potential of the human mind
is as powerful as the sun to give light
with the breath of life in this frame
of matter the challenge remain
to continue and fight
the purpose of life is not to build
castles alone but also to gain knowledge
and be wise
everyday is an opportunity to
introspect and use whatever time
left to revise

the storm in the ocean of the mind
can remove the mountain of fear
with the weapon of enthusiasm
the future will take shape in despair
while you are alive
the need for courage to conquer
is in your hand
you have the freedom of choice
and the power to command.
