Consciousness

My life was once all yours, now it all crumpled to pieces.

It was all great, love and sweetness, but turned into a great mess.

The world is not all about sweet pies and cakes,

Love isn’t always that happily great.

Lucky are those who’ve got answered prayers.

From God blessings so dear and those who truly prayed.

The heart and soul have been so lonely.

Shattered dreams, and broken plans.

Tiresome hopes, and cold words.

Empty hands and losing strengths.

Good fortune turned to dust,

For one little mistake that marks life to last.

The hard reality of love and pain written in a very beautiful way.
