Hard to grasp

by Phoenix ¥   Mar 13, 2019


This is all the life I have the energy for
Oh yes - of course I want more!

But I have to accept my body limits me
I have no choice, I must let it be.

Dreams are dreams that stay far away
Something meant for another day.

Or another lifetime perhaps?
It’s just so painful and too hard to grasp.

    A very reflective piece that doesn't go into too much detail but it something I feel we can all relate or ache for. Whether it's physical limitations or struggling with emotions or mental energy... we can only do what we can do. There comes a point of acceptance with that along with a constant sense of wonder, what more can we do and achieve?

      Acceptance is massive..and very hard to truly achieve.

    It can be frustrating to realise that all our hopes and dreams will never actually be reality. I suppose we just have to make do with what we have and keep striving for what we can attain.

    Take care and all the best,
