Facing a tidal wave of disillusionment
Coupled with disenchantment to boot
One can't do anything
Or tell anyone
Of all the pain and disappointment
That have got burned into one's brain
And have been stuck into one's eidetic memory.
One can only write
And tell oneself not to repine
But to be strong and confident
And do whatever one enjoys best
Erasing from one's photographic memory
All the pain and disappointment
And salving one's hurting soul.

True dignity abides with him alone
Who, in the silent hour of inward thought
Can still suspect, and still revere himself
In lowliness of heart.
William Wordsworth
