With all my years before, I still come unprepared for these tumults and
strife.
It is as though I take one step forward, and two leaps back.
I stand short with all my courage, tall with all my pain.
This life is so unpredictable, with immeasurable amounts of loss and tears.
I cannot see ahead and must never let these eyes set back
Stagnant, if that’s the word, describes the life I lead.
I once had a dream,
One bigger than easily fathomed.
The talent is gone and my hands just cannot do the same.
I find peace in chaos.
Love in hatred.
But I cannot find hope.
No, not in this world.
