Struggles

Struggles

Innocence masked with guilt
Stands on a stifled slope,
Where once hatred was built,
And awaits an immense hope.

Discernment in disguise
Inside the body's rage
Causes the opening of eyes
To desire words of a sage.

A dismayed soul weeps bitterly
Without an essence...
Emotions have no ecstasy--
Only an aimless presence.

The intellect pursues a way
From the murky path behind it.
A new light emerges to stay
And gives hope to those who find it.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
