all too easily

when recovery

is longer than

expected

and the mind grows

impatient

we tend all too easily

to forget

the grace we are given

of being

granted to heal

healing remedy

not to be acknowledged

for what we do

is one thing

not to be recognised

for who we are

another

confusing the two

is often tempting

though not the answer

to the pain it causes

when confusion arise

even less

the healing remedy

prone

when another person’s failure

turns into be

one’s own reality

truth is lost

and when truth is lost

the inner compass

is prone to confusion

and where confusion reigns

suffering prevails

mounting

heaps of sadness

leaving behind

shadows of grief

mounting to the surface

while there is space

for them

to be healed

disheartened

being disheartened

when

the truth

which was denied

is being revealed

is natural

the time for life to expand

and reality

to find its proper balance

reminder

dreams of crushed faith

and fear

of humiliation and defencelessness

as to remind

that the realm of dependence

is now behind

and the gates of wisdom

ahead

reality

no one is supposed

to walk an extra mile

for a lie

no one is supposed

to go against

one’s nature

to meet

an illusion

no one is supposed

to inflict pain on oneself

nor anyone else

in order to fulfil

a fancy

yet

it can sometimes be painful

to face

reality

after the rain

being able to give

the body

rest

when rest is what

it claims

can be perceived

as sublime tenderness

on a morning

after the rain

when fear appears

gently leaning

to stay

with wisdom

when fear

appears

in order to let

truth

reveal itself

rather than giving knowledge

the final word
