Ignorance

Ignorance

I've been exalted,
I've been battered,
been built up
and then been shattered.

Hard to believe
I still don't know
when I should cleave
or just
let
go.

    Beautifully put-so much pain in so few words!

    And yet there's something lighthearted about it too, perhaps because of the rhyme. Makes for an interesting tension.

    thanks for sharing it!
