Life Is Not As Rosy As It Seems.... Poem by Ejay 1806

Life is not as rosy as it seems,
Nor is it bright, like the sun beams,
Difficult choices have to be made,
The most unwanted things have to be said,
Tears of Sorrow, pangs of Separation,
Fear of the Unknown clinging in desperation,
Sleepless nights, Hollow laughter,
Not Courage left, just not enough to muster,
The Beloved must be forgotten,
One must tread on a path, pale and rotten,
Numerous hardships we must encounter,
For long gone are the days of playful saunter,
Forked are the Curious Crossroads of life,
Crowded with trees of Sorrow, laden with spite,
A Choice must be made, the one which is wise,
If gone wrong, It is too late to realise,
Squeamish insides screaming for help,
and a tortured tongue, with a painful yelp,
Why does this happen? Why does it stay?
Why does happiness seem so far away?
The answer to the above, can be just one,
The One that can never ever be undone:
' Life is not as rosy as it seems...! ! '
