Poet’s Corner by Cristina Jill Mosqueda • January 17, 2019 It Cannot All Be Relative, Can It Is there any point In seeking perfect order In life or love Should we simply embrace the chaos Preached by those with the loudest voices And pretend to be at peace Do we go with the proclaimed flow Even if it appears stagnant In our sight I think it might be easier To surrender to the masses Rather than stand alone Pleading for a vision Which only you can see Feels rather hopeless But how do you learn to navigate In a world without a compass rose And a sliding scale of truth Can everything in life be relative And anything in life still matter I feel too tossed and turned I want to belong in your happy world But the price seems too high to pay My soul for acceptance Your path is unclear to me So I cannot join your journey But I do wish well ~ Cristina Jill Mosqueda ~
