I Dipped My Cup

I dipped my cup into a deep well of sorrow,

the heart wrenching pain making me gasp,

It’s taste both bitter and filled with longing

for things I cannot name

but feel with ounce of my being.

I dipped my cup into a deep well of sorrow,

finally choosing to sit with the memories,

to savor them, learn their lessons,

release them into the ether.

I dipped my cup into a deep well of sorrow,

at peace with the duality,

the dark and the light,

for there can never be light

without the darkness.
