Smile Between the Screams

When a mishap takes place...
I ignored it, and pressed on.
What else to do?
Grace is not always polished.
But I can smile between the screams.

If I stumble, that's how we grow---
and if luck feels absurd,
I'll chuckle all the way under...

Because every problem has a resolution 
in its own time.
No matter how long it will takes---
I'm sure it won't last forever.

Life is simple, and full of beauty.
Do not complicate the gentle things
We never knew what comes next.
So live, and live fully.
