Portrait
Unshed tears
Broken smiles
Happiness never lasts
Fading dreams vivid nightmares
Joy being a thing of the past
Little hope for tomorrow
Dreading today
I’d rather be curled up in bed
Loved ones departing
Constantly crying
Heart mending words never said
But still life continues
Pain fades
Memories forever tainted
Scars settle
As time goes by
The portrait of my life being painted
