Lie-F
Unforeseen are its episodes
Where intensions become deleted scenes,
And proposed routines, impromptu.
Impartiality clings not to it,
Dealing random cards to unwary hands
That receive them compulsorily.
To embrace the illusions bestowed us,
Is to accept an abysmal demise;
Convalescence elusive.
But, insuperable it is not, for
Many have tested and conquered
Its sporadic and inconvenient obstacles.
Still, comfort can be acquired in its aftermath,
Through acceptance of hope; a hope
Which demands triumph as consequence.
An acquisition worthy of the battle scars
And tainted memories,
The trophies from which derives true strength and wisdom.
