Self discovery

SERVITUDE

I often wonder what the devil thought
I'm tired of being a servant, can I not be the boss?
Is it being ungrateful or is it standing up for myself
Subject to a constant life of service, can I not be served

My curiosity often gets the best of me
But isn't service the path of humans
Bound to live a life not chosen but given
Chained to the will of the universe

Religious ones bound to serve gods in return for a reward not specifically known
If my reward for service is heaven,
Will I finally be able to rest
If I choose to serve myself, will I serve another in hell

Multiple path but none seem free
Should I choose freedom that comes with punishment
Or punishment that comes with freedom
I will choose the path that asks less of me

My body aches and my mind suffers more
I have been given the freedom to think
False freedom to choose
My creator already knows my end, he just watches
Will I be bound to a life of service till the day I die?
