I could not retain the memory,could not but let it go.To toil was a suffering, to strive too hard to know.To stumble (once) against the wall,to stand and try again.Like one piece of the puzzle, lost,to find, but who knows when.It may seem like just a moment,a lifetime it has been.To lose, and yet, to […]

nothing more
They came to be my sole relief the one with wonder – without grief that ever one would seek And once I came to understand the gravitas – the strewn land it all became complete How one’s virtue stood the test directing one to what was best and leaving worse behind In a world where […]
