Only Anguish

There are some experiences in life which words can’t describe

They envelope you

They seal you

They move you

And it all repeats until you die

No matter how much you cry

The water isn’t conducive to your growth

Yet, coldly, life goes on

Unconcered about the life that was born

I’m guided by the wind, like Fall and leaves

With a heart that doesn’t bleed

Like Job, I only have one question

Why?

Once the answer permeates my being

I’ll rest like Job and make silence my friend

To live is to suffer, but to survive well, that’s to find meaning in the suffering.
