A Paradox of Existence

A Paradox of Existence

Confusion, resentment,
Misery mixed with contentment,
Loneliness and stories to be told,
Dichotomies that need to be resolved.

Turmoil to be smoothed,
Requests to be refused,
Consequences to be accepted,
Fallacies to be rejected.

Paradoxes to come to terms,
Lessons that must be relearned,
Friends to share our hopes and dreams,
Solitude to accept as serene.
