Disparity

Equilibrium…balance…in equal parts…
Nothing seems to be in equilibrium now
Perchance I need to let the head rule
I do not comprehend
Though I try to my utmost

The heart is weak
As petals droop and wither away
I feel vulnerable
Shivering and meek and dazed
Brooding in morose silence

I am trying
Perhaps not hard enough
God grant me strength and the will
Odds I will weather
And rivers I must cross

To reach the other side
Of greener pastures
And rolling clouds
So oft heard of
Near and yet so remote
