Sonnet II - I’ll Be Fine

As summer passes into autumn flame,

I’m chilled as those words bury to my core,

I try to come to terms, I’m not to blame,

And settle back to what I was before.

I do what I know best - I turned to art,

And ponder on the hand that I’ve been dealt,

That should I let that cold embrace my heart,

A flake of ice would surely never melt.

Instead, I sit here grateful, and assured,

No good will come from hiding in the dark,

The weight of many things that I’ve endured,

Guides me towards a purposeful embark.

The life ahead of me gives off a shine

I know that all is well…and I’ll be fine.
