Some day I’m enough

Some day I lose myself

Some day I flow with life

Some day life is strife

–

Some mornings bring hope

I am at peace with myself

Some mornings I lose the will

The will to rise and live

–

My past is laden with memories

Memories of love and ecstasy

Memories of despair and ineptitude

I cherish some, I abandon few

–

I feel trapped sometimes

Trapped in the conundrum of my thoughts

I’m learning to govern my vagrant mind

This mind that doesn’t let me revel in peace

–

I’ve questioned myself enough

But there are no straight answers

I’m learning to tame my desires

Not everything you wish, comes true

–

I’m learning to accept life

I succeed at it sometimes

I fail at it more often

I’m learning to accept that I’ve failed
