Timothy Mcguire Poet Free verse

And So It Begins

And so it begins
Life for me
Lights, camera, action
Up and running
Faces, voices
Growing
Do this, don't do that
Come here, go there
Hormones, lust, love
Touching, thrashing
Hearts quickens, love thickens
Marriage, children, strife
Demands, responsibilities
Laughter, anger, sorrow
Longing for tomorrow
Slowing down
Struggling
Faces, voices
Down and falling
Turn off the lights
Life for me
And so it ends
