It Is Useless to Worry - Sonnet Variation


It is useless to worry, life just is!
Accept its dubious gifts, we have no choice.
Give it a try and see. Struggle ahead
For what you want and get your wish.
Is your heart glad and satisfied? May be
You will experience the peculiar urge
That it is not enough and you want more.

That your soul is in bondage on that score.
That there is in you a ruthless urge,
A quenchless thirst that steals away your peace.
Did your collapse bring you untold grief?
Your dreams betrayed, your hope misled?
Why can’t you be contented and rejoice?
It is useless to worry, life just is...!
****
