Understanding Disappointment


Somehow disappointment is tied to dreams,
goals that seem achievable but aren't if they
are dependent on others. Expectations can
be controlled if understood as possibilities.

Elusive yet important as one progresses:
what could be, not should or must be.
Freedom allows variation, while force
compels compliance or else disaster occurs.

Fairness gets stirred in to add confusion.
If only, regrets cloud aspirations, stop progress.
Serendipity arrives with relief, sudden solutions
give surprise and unexpected answers bring hope.
