Why, my heart, are you downcast?

Flowing down, trickling fast, flowing there despite,

The abundance of all things, the praise throughout the night,

A soul in total downcast, the storm surrounds her head,

The uncertainty of what could be clouded her with dread,

Higher than any place, satisfied in every way,

Blessed in every circumstance more than simple words could portray,

Despite such fulfillment, the satisfaction of every vow and creed,

There was a longing to be fulfilled, the desire, a need,

Though such times were prosperous, everything you could desire,

Such satisfaction was temporary, compared to the dimming of the fire,

Though security was perfected and every path then clears,

Why? Why was there such unfulfillment, and the flowing of many tears?
