Life humbles me.
In all of its complexity,
Its depth
Its fathomlessness.
Every decade I spend
In this world
In this skin
In this existence
Shreds my confidence
In my knowledge
Of what is, what was,
What should be,
And leaves me with a heap
Of dead feathers.
And still the phoenix within
Sings to me of a reality
Deeper than any I see
And assures me
That if I can look out at the world
Without flinching in the face of so much pain
It will eventually regain an equilibrium
Not planned, not manufactured
But jolted into place by natural forces
Deep in the core of the real.
Beautiful write. Yeah life is a mystery that is difficult to understand.
