I wrote this just a moment ago, none of this is stolen, I promise. ^_^ I wrote this to mean something in particular, I'm wondering if anyone can figure it out. The first part is indeed a reference to myself, the rest is about something else entirely, both are connected to a degree. Only one who understands the first part will have a chance at the rest...though the more knowledge one has of the opening, the better their chances. Muahahaha!


----------------------------


Too long the wait,
And long I have waited.
Too narrow the pass,
And narrowly I have passed.

Forlorn are those that have walked,
Lost are those that haven't.
Both have seen much,
Yet neither can see.

The one in the East says It's red,
The one in the West says It's blue,
North and South don't care what It is,
But the one above It understands.

All who have are guilty,
All who lack are worthless,
All who aren't are nothing,
All who belong are home.

This is far too complex for my simply minded nature.

Sounds like a religious reference, give me a second on this one.

I will say that the first paragraph can unlock the rest of it, with the proper perspective. ^_^

It's not suppose to be easy, though, so... ^_^

Nope, nothing to do with religion, though one could relate it to something Gandhi or Buddha would say, or even a Biblical thing maybe, but it's not related to any of that.

Well. F*ck.

Ummm...sorry? *cringe*

It's a good one, and there is actually an interesting and useful message I think hidden in those words. It's actually something my real life sensei taught me (even though he doesn't know he's my sensei lol).

First Clue!

I couldn't help myself, I had to give one. ^_^

The capital "I" in "It" in the third paragraph is significant.

Is it about relationships?
Edit: Nevermind. It's not. Is it about the meaning of life?

I'm going on a limb here, does it involve North and South Korea by any chance?
