Life!

Life…

So unpredictable

Merciless..

One moment lets us

Love, laugh, dream

And next, goes Thwack!

One cruel twist

And all’s lost…

Your plans

Your castles

Into thin air vanished…

Life gets meaningless

Your loved one lost!

Bereaved you cry

For all’s lost…

Sadder, wiser

You pick up the threads

And go on

Loving, laughing, dreaming

Carrying on!

For that’s life,

And that’s it’s cost…
