The clouds obscure the edge,

world dropping off unannounced

The horizon stretches out,

the distance pronounced

We travel this world

naked and alone

wrapped in illusions

that feel like home

Unique to our experiences,

no two the same,

we struggle and learn,

solitaire our game

At the end of our journey,

Our own judgement we must face.

With no knowledge of the rules,

we can never understand our place

But the point is not to win or lose,

the score is not kept.

We learn, we love, we grow,

and somehow, we learn to accept
