Hope and Strife
Futile pondering
My companion sublime
Incessant counting
A millionth time
Of all the 'Why's,
'Should i not's
And 'Why cant I's
Stifling me in knots
The silver lining
I thought i'd find
Still has me searching
Far every cloud behind
Meandering through
This maze of a life
Hope kindled and anew
With a tinge of bitter strife.
