Dilettante

A half-hearted attempt at creating something new...
Maybe it's the sluggishness, maybe the hollow
Or maybe, it's just temporality.

With heavy eyes and a mind debilitated,
I sit here with a will undaunted...
Much cherished, once returned.

But the will remains sans consort,
Much to the reflection of my soul tonight...
Sweet delight, I rejoice.

A word here, a thought there,
A step up, a step down...
The rollecoaster ride I'm set upon.

For now, it's another half-hearted attempt
at something still unknown...
In the unknown lies the invaluable.
