An Unsettling Assurance

I sit at night and ponder in this meaningful silence,

With no idea of how I should feel.

A thousand thoughts and words making its way,

Not allowing me to sleep until with these words I play.

 

A mixed state of confusion filled with some unknown peace,

With a little disappointment and yet a smile I so effortlessly keep.

You’ve opened my eyes to an emotion of undying care,

A weight my heart so happily bares.

 

I’ve learned to laugh at my misery and my unlucky luck,

I’ve learned to hope even when the going gets tough.

I’m happy with the way I am and equally sad too,

While I dream to be with you and yet have so willingly accepted the truth.
