Just another WordPress site
where the ambition for
perfection
triumph over
the need for presence
success might be
achieved
in an exclusive appearance
of prestige
though just as much as
the outset was
to search for the innermost essence
the essence in itself
might be lost
a night of little sleep
a glorious break of day
a landscape covered with frost
a hope
that for a moment
had been lost
shining bright
sophisticated solitude
can sometimes be
a suffocating experience
sophisticated in the sense
that impossible to
describe
in a manner
allowing
anyone else to grasp
just how
sophisticated solitude can be
when purpose
persist
and perseverance
is no longer a burden
rather a play
it might be
that dawn is breaking
into day
being unable to make
an independent decision
can be just as disabling
as being unable to take
advice
yet neither is disabling
for as long
as the behaviours are accepted
for what they are
the weakness
which makes
our strength
when fear is blinding
even paralysing
there might be no reason
to open
the eyes
all one can do
is holding on
to that inner light
which is able
to bring us through
when surrendering meant
being abused
regaining the ability
to surrender
might take years
even lifetimes
where there is no one to blame
only discipline
to practice
over and over again
until
resilience is
anew
resilient
a drawing
two glorious conversations
a written message
can be what it takes
to uplift a day
beyond the exhaustion
running below
every effort
to overcome it
whirling wind
after a long night’s sleep
still without recovering
the inner balance
which has been lost
for so many years
that it is becoming
almost impossible
to remember
it ever was
any different
but only
almost
and it is
in that very almost
hope is embedded
when giving care
was all
one ever wanted
to do
while being told
to be
a bundle of
unbearable troubles
it can take time
for the mind
to find the confidence
that giving care is all
one was ever meant
to do
