The Traffic Light

In a road of life,
Love will pass our way.
No matter how far or near,
Our journey lead its way.

It takes a sign to follow,
as we go through our trip.
The signal of what must do,
when love has end its glitz.

Yellow served as a warning sign.
That tears and pain will soon abide.
A warning for us to be strong.
as sun shine will soon  aglow.

Soon red sign will be lit,
A time for us to stop and think.
A meanwhile pause to endure the pain,
To admit that love has gone away.

And green light will be followed.
Reminding us to  move ahead and life goes on.
No matter how painful the wound it caused.
The road of life still has purpose.

Don't be afraid to love and lost,
It's part of a journey in a road we crossed.
Just keep in thoughts what matters most,
We live and love utmost.
