Rest In Peace

When mirrors crack they shatter all illusions as rainbow’s end quick fixes lie in tatters on the floor.
A plot for every dream and every dreamer engraved with stirring mottos bound  to fade.
For those who lost the plot a final resting ground,
while soul survivors live to bear the scars of unplanned residue.

Yes, those left either in bad situations in life or left by a death, the results leave a residue. Thank you for sharing this one with us. Sara K
