Mired in contradictions

Blessed to be alive,
cursed to despair,
Fortunate with fortunes
But, the heart lays bare.

Surrounded by many
Amidst them all alone, 
enveloped in affection 
But, unconditional love, none.

Plentiful are necessities, 
Provided for in abundance,
living close to perfection, 
But, hollow without substance

Trying conditions persist.
Days are long and fleeting
Struggling to stay in pace, 
But the mind takes a beating
