I assume we all yearn for something different

at different times in our lives

the same lessons displayed differently

different lessons displaying similarly

with the same goal in mind

to get through this stage of humanness

in life, we are born to die and we try

hard to live in the moment

find peace before, during and after the storm

A storm that is often caused by the fear and conflict

within our own selves

the struggle with yearning is that

our souls need different things

at different moments

and the fleshiness of us being ourselves

gets in the way
