Limitless Limits

In life you set limits And you live by those limits— Sometimes you are better off, Sometimes you suffer. Can you have more fun? Live a little more if you step out of bounds once in a while? Be more adventurous? A tad more notorious? Walk in the shadows, Walk the back alleys every now and then? Everyone has to make that choice on his own, Everyone invariably pays a price. Life's lived within the limits, But the spirit to survive is boundless, Mind binds us in mysterious knots Only heart trespasses all limits, Hope traverses the uncharted realms And flight of imagination soars to heavens! Hate transcends all boundaries So does revenge, Man’s hunger for war is limitless So is the longing for peace, Love surpasses all! Sin descends to the bottomless pit, Envy broaches all limits, Only justice dwells within the bounds, And so does faith and family. Limits contest by Chase Trevi ~Abdul Malik, 08/02/15
