Melancholia

.

Life is so beautiful, defying every law,

Leaving us all in awe, both empty and so full,

It doesn’t make much sense, not always logical,

Experience magical and ever so intense,

Most make it through the years without having once slowed

Down to look where they strode and simply greet their peers,

Others give in to fears, on the side of the road

Break down under the load they carry in their tears,

A few seek the beauty of the world around them

– Very well-hidden gem – through science, deity;

Sadly some cannot see the many different paths,

They surrender to wrath, listening to no plea.

I for one cannot say to which crowd I belong

For my heart walks along the edge, ready to sway…

.


Life is also ugly, full of deformity,

A true calamity that treats us all roughly.
