The Complexity of Simplicity

We are all looking for answers,
Searching for a moment's reprieve,
And as seconds turn to hours,
We realize nothing's that easy.

There's nothing that is quite perfect,
The pieces don't always quite fit,
So we always try to word it,
But the words are far too simple.

The abstract concepts echo soft,
While the thought is so much stronger,
The reason seems so very feeble,
For paragraphs are too basic.

But ideas are rather robust,
And beliefs weigh much heavier,
But the strongest force is emotion,
There is nothing quite as complex.

No matter how much we invest,
The words cannot ever express,
The true meaning behind the word,
The sentences aren't that stable.

So while we are looking for answers,
We can't truly ask the right questions,
As we never can quite account for,
The complexity of simplicity.
