Undiminished Happiness

I'm tumbling past their eyes, yet they don't see
I'm mumbling my goodbyes, yet they don't hear
I'm feeling hopeless hurt deservedly
I'm reeling from the dirt and dung and fear.

But as the years go by, I learn to grow
And actively defy this place I'm in
Reality dictates haphazard flow
As anger obfuscates regret and sin.

This body-mind connection won't let go
Forcing staid reflection, asking why
Beyond the truth of all that I did know
Flailing as I fall, I grasp the lie.

Though seen thusly diminished and unfit
I see a Life unfinished. I won't quit.

Another pep talk. The Sonnet above is chronologically reflective of recent years and how I am where I am today. This week that body-mind connection has been particularly powerful.
