Lessons

by Lena - Aries

Gained enlightenment when
I realised my pain was good
Real
Healthy, or so I hear

I cried when I learned
it would never go away

I blossom regardless
as all creatures must

Weep more than most
Embrace forgotten dreams

But I laugh so much more too

And
That's enough.
Real
Healthy

My salvation will always lie
in my joy.

Reason for writing:

    The reason for this particular poem? I suppose it's a celebration of my ever-changing view on life. Nothing in life is constant or stationary. So grab the good stuff and don't worry too much about tomorrow...
