Constance La France Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Resignation

I gave to sorrow all I had,
all my sadness and trembling grief
and then-  I accepted my fate,
     with resignation.
     Heart-wrung with tears,
   I have found outlets for the pain,
   writing, dancing are now my loves,
I detached from passivity.

I am resigned to my reality,
to the letting go of loving hearts,
so it is for all of eternity,
     and today, I dance.
     I put everything there,
  all my emotions I surrender, relinquish
  tears are falling down and I collapse,
and then-   the music ends.
