REJECTION – Yewande Akinse

rejection is as unkind as cold grief
the illusions of things that could have been
frustration marinated pain and beef
envelope a need to be felt and seen
a burning desire to be light so keen
longing too is such a kind of cold loss
of hoping sometimes in vain for luck’s toss
groping in vain for some recognition
for grief is an inevitable boss
the secret to living is transition
