When life doesn't go as planned
I think of what should've been
Deep yearnings long for more
Reminds me that I am only human
It's not mine to foretell
Wishful thoughts of my deceived heart
I do err to think, imagine, conceive
Folly returns to remind me of my nature
I dare not trust to mortal men
My innermost desires to be realized
Flesh will always fail, even as I will
All men are numbered for time
I'll do what I can to the best
To leave what can't be to rest
In this, I'll be satisfied, I tried
It was an attempt with joy

A salty mist is in the air and the verdant beauty of nature abounds everywhere. Learn more.
