Into The Unknown

He raised his hands up to the sky
As if to praise the the Gods above
Reaching for their blessing now
In case they deemed him worthy.

If what legends told were true
The time had come for him to prove
That there indeed exists an
Answer to the age old question.

Grasping down against the rock
He starts to scale the treacherous wall
Knowing that if he should fall
The truth would be forever lost.

Determination in his eyes
Kept his burning hope alive
Feeling colder as he rises
Inching closer to demise.

Climbing on
For countless suns
Far beyond
Into the unknown.

Raised himself
Above the clouds
Entering
The heavens.

Searching for
The holy ones
Seeking out
A purpose.

Crying out
An empty sound
"Why were we
Created?".

No response
He screamed aloud
"Why are we
Forsaken?".

He threw his hands
Up in disgust
And cursed this
Revelation.

Abandoning
His faith at last
And cast himself
From heaven.
