"Well"
Dip into reasoning, not just to see;
Unexpected, yet some things expected.
Seek more to find, not quite rite;
rephrase, still not the one, right?
As things uncertain, the pail dips again;
well seems dry, with no water left to find.
Like dry bucket’s dismal presentation:
Heart’s disheartened, when no equivalent.
Now you want explanation.
Well, still you are in this conversation.
Unexpected, yet some things expected.
Seek more to find, not quite rite;
rephrase, still not the one, right?
As things uncertain, the pail dips again;
well seems dry, with no water left to find.
Like dry bucket’s dismal presentation:
Heart’s disheartened, when no equivalent.
Now you want explanation.
Well, still you are in this conversation.
