Irony of Life
In every heavenly sip of forbidden ambrosia lies a drop of mortal poison
In every beautiful moment of unmasked laughter lies a trace of undissolved pain
In every loyal promise of forever and after lies a lie of concealed fear
In every cherished memory of stunning victory lies a breath of veiled failure
In every cold silence of desperate eyes lies a casket of unspoken words
And in every contented heart of happiness lies a million unhealed scars still bleeding.....
