The Soul of a Poet
Bright yet darkened,
Darkened by life's
Atrocities
Livid yet calm
Calm concerning
What is to come
Frightened yet not,
Not for long
Strengthened by life
Saddened yet joyful
Joyful for us
Elated by the future
In complete turmoil
Yet at peace
With everything
A poet's soul,
We are tested, yet victorious
Victorious yet conquered
Bright yet darkened,
Darkened by life's
Atrocities
Livid yet calm
Calm concerning
What is to come
Frightened yet not,
Not for long
Strengthened by life
Saddened yet joyful
Joyful for us
Elated by the future
In complete turmoil
Yet at peace
With everything
A poet's soul,
We are tested, yet victorious
Victorious yet conquered
