This piece brought tears to my eyes....As we get older it is so easy to try to live with the past. When things were happy and life was so much easier.

A time when he was strong as a mountain
not fragile or smothered in pain.
His pale existence now did yield
to the winter of his discontent.
He did dream oh how he would put
his spin on the world.

This stanza really hit me in the heart
Excellent job!
Take care

So much runs through my mind as I ran this, I actually got a bit chocked up.
What I was once I am no more. It's painful in it's reality.
Just as this poem is painful in it's wording. You know life and it's pit falls and are able to bring them forth for others to learn. Excellent
