Sometimes poetry feels like a brutally cruel form of art.

Or is it just me?

“The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven.”

— Paradise Lost, John Milton (b. 9 December 1608)

The Lord is my Sheperd,

I choose to lack nothing more

than the Lord gives me.

The Lord knows my name

even before I came to be,

so I will patiently wait in communion

for my Lord to call me.

For I know who I am,

a child of the Most High.

Lessons have been learned.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve been me.”

— Fernando Pessoa

People are not bad, they’re just not participating in a set of expectations you have for them.
