(A State of) Confusion

A new feeling paints my heart in unknown shades,

As the color of the past now slowly, gently fades.

There is no darkness and there is no light.

There is no more wishful thinking to fight.

 

The equanimity is shyly settling in,

Conquering a war of losses from within.

Who knows to what avail all this is?

Who knows the answers to life’s quiz?

 

All we see is a faint image of a near future

And all we have is our inner feelings to nurture.

Letting peace and resignation take over,

I succumb to this new emotional makeover.

 

Gratefulness prevails…
