A shut-in life,
The baffled walls whispering,
Withdrawal into our lonely,
fatigued selves.
The swift pulse of our
changing priorities;
the stoutly guarded facades falling off,
thoughts wrestling with a constant sense of uncertainty,
a faith trying to salvage
a slipping hope.
Slow acceptance of an
inherent susceptibility;
Habits learning to shatter
the mist of myths,
Dreams making peace with
an obvious yet oblivious reality;
A silent realization to relish the nanoseconds offered now
without nursing an appetite for a future unknown.
A hardship that leaves us
languishing in isolation,
but creates a new bond
with our blessings.
