Actions

In the realm of words, we wander, lost and alone
Chasing symbols, images, and shadows, we call home
But the word is not the thing, it's just a disguise
A veil that hides the truth, and fuels our compromise

We live in contradiction, a maze of our own making
Where enthusiasm wanes, and energy keeps on faking
We seek passion in words, but it's just a tease
For action is the spark, that sets the heart at ease

But we're trapped in self-deceit, a web of our own spin
Where conscious and unconscious, in conflict, lock horns within
Our intentions and desires, a jumbled, tangled mess
A contradiction that drains, our energy, we must confess

We're caught in a cycle, of self-doubt and fear
Where words and symbols, our true selves, do peer
We hide behind masks, and pretend to be
But the truth is, we're fragmented, and can't break free

So let's shatter the illusion, and see the word for what it's worth
A mere representation, not the real thing, on this earth
Let's bridge the gap, between the symbol and the deed
And unleash the energy, that our actions, indeed, proceed

For passion is not enthusiasm, but sustained, focused might
That drives us to completion, through day and endless night
It's the fire that burns, deep within our soul
A flame that flickers, but never loses its goal

So let's dissolve the contradiction, and find our inner harmony
And unleash the energy, that sets our souls free, wild, and carefree
Let's embrace our true selves, and let our actions speak
For in the end, it's not words, but deeds, that truly seek.
