I bounce and I fall
I lie low, but quit I do not.
My disappointments run
Steep like my hopes.
I fall in my own eyes
I rise better in my head,
I pray with my heart
It’s all worth it in the end

Resilience!
“disappointments run steep” – nice take on this prompt.
Never giving up… sometimes that the best strategy
the last stanza is very empowering, to see our own faults but have the will to overcome – no matter how steep – well written
Thank goodness we somehow balance out.
I like how both disappointments and hopes are steeping.
Eyes head and heart, not a bad team, as long as you donโt trust any one of them inordinately ๐ nice quadrille.
