feeling it down to the marrow

Life itself is the great sacrament through which we are wounded and healed. If we live everything, life will be faithful to us.
❤️
– John O’Donohue

this birth of awaiting changes
this for that
tit for tat
tuxedo memories
pinstripe debonair
glamour hangs
like confetti in the air
life goes
round and round
flinging dreams
synthetic roads
leading nowhere
screams and laugher
hardest when not fair
up one side now
down the other there
we hang on
we stomp our feet
and swear
this ain’t right
this we cannot bear
life goes forward
ever on and on
wanting only
to change our point of view
we are loved
no matter what we lose
love will win
love always life’s sweet muse
sight or blind
the vision ours to choose
❤️
AL
Men must endure / Their going hence even as their coming hither; / Ripeness is all.
– William Shakespeare / King Lear
