State of Being

In this glorious state of being I find I am alone For how or why, this way I feel I must now atone I am not lost nor am I sad Yet, I see life has flown By all accounts of measured thought At least I think I’ve grown So what then of this feeling, still Shall I live to bemoan Or shall I live in gratitude For all that I have known
