End Game

I choose to believe

That there is a reason

For every inexplicable

Action, or lack thereof,

In the universe;

That by and by

We will be enlightened

To the meaning behind

Our trials and tribulations;

That in the end

It will be immeasurably

Worth the endured pain,

The shattered hearts;

That these broken steps

Are leading me to the person

I was meant to be,

The person I must become

To find true happiness,

Blissful contentment.

So I take today’s heartache

And place it in the column

Of lessons learned,

Keeping faith that I am

One more stepping stone closer

To the rewards in which I’m heading.
