An Ode to Suffering
An Ode to Suffering. Haiku style.
Anticipation
Still and dark, the hazy glow
As focus ensues
The day unfolds, yet
not with ease, the doubt seeps in
And clouds the mind grey
The body follows
suit, and soon all is shattered,
tiny pieces fall
Yet they pursue, the
Reason unknown, except to
Prove stronger the mind
The day is not lost
No, merely a different lens
To see the journey
And under that lens
The tumultuous journey,
transcends into grace
Bright, triumphant end
Troubled journey leads to a
Beautiful ending
It is such a day
That defines us to the core
And makes us feel alive
Do we hide in fear,
No, we welcome the fight
The struggle, brilliant
And for this we will
Ever be thankful, for
Discovering strength
This does not define
Us, we define it, and rise
Above our demise.
