Life's strenuous milestones
At times chill us to the bone
Were no longer soft and pliable
Seeing that nothing in life is reliable
Tornados swirl around our thoughts
Our heart and soul feel wrought
Nothing glistens within our smile
Anger and betrayal leave us riled
One shadow after another we gain
Surrounding our soul in a black stain
True love a memory diminished
Our lives like this poem left unfinished
