A StArK ReAliTy

Would seem she's only happy as lark
        When in her self induced paradise
        Again meeting a runner at the park
       with her life she always seems to dice
      
       A road on which she chose to embark
        I ask dose one ever really think twice
         Physically and emotionally is a mark
         And you know one that is not very nice

         Still a reality that even now seems so stark
         But nothing else for her would ever suffice
          When still chasing the light and the dark
         One always asks though at what real price



         An old write taken from epic twenty verse poem her life style a little abstract about a past friend written 2014

Wonderful ABAB rhyme scheme, David, with an interesting story interwoven.
