Coming Undone

The dangers of life;
wait around every corner,
for each unsuspecting victim.

The pains of life;
increase with every day,
a struggle to keep fighting.

The choices of life;
filled with complications,
and heart-breaking repercussions.

The realities of life;
always harsh and cruel,
unable to escape the ugly truth.

The gifts of life;
unknowingly disguised,
accompanied by many lessons.

The treasures of life;
seem to be so few,
retaining that false hope.

The cycle of life;
never set in stone-
endlessly unpredictable.

Note: Despite gaining the most amazing partner ever in my life, I am still riddled with pains of the past that affect my present.
