Reincarnation

Reincarnation

Loneliness creeps until you’re unable to sleep

Infuses its cold fingers so deep

All that can be seen is misery in love’s drought

Only seen is that winter hue of a sun that can’t climb out

The heart that despairs and the mind in an endless bind

Hopeless appears as a friendly face despite being unkind

You walk and see anonymous faces but feel their attack

It’s the insanity of cold emotions that haunt and track

Then rises the questions of existence

Are we by design, chance or part of Nature’s consequence?

You know all it takes is a chance romance

And suddenly it’ll all be about at least a dalliance

Emotions rise and fall leading to summer and a snowy pall

Secret’s to find the bedrock that draws the line

This far down and no farther is true

Strength is to risk and reincarnate you
