The Wisdom of Tragedy

For the one who can see things – where others can’t…

Illuminating for certain things –
especially for those
close to the heart.
I do still try and stay hopeful –
when I manage the strength –
because there are so many
still there fighting so hard
for something different.
And here I mean
the existential fight –
for creativity and freedom.
If they don’t give up, I can’t.
Even though the darkness
right now is overwhelming
and an end (or a change)
can barely be imagined.
