Some Things in Life

Some Things in Life

Lost in a maze of puzzles and thoughts
Where something was but now is not
Faiths, beliefs are tested often
Love is lost and ideals soften

Colors blend and mix and change
but somehow views have stayed the same
We should see blue, and white, and red
but we just see black and white instead

Friendships always are evolving
just as the world keeps revolving
Happiness and love make up a life
just as much as turmoil and strife

Hearts can open and they can close
Melt like candy when offered a rose
Freeze like ice when they're ignored
and shatter like glass when love is no more

But we know that children will cry
it is inevitable that the elders will die
We can't predict when we'll feel pain
but at least some things in life will always remain

Returned

 I'm back! After months of nothingness I have finally come back I didn't mean to desert the blog (dessert the blog? yum!) but I've been admittedly busy.
That's not to say that this poem is about me. I mean, it's not. Obviously... well, anyway, I've definitely missed blogland and now forgive me if I post poem after poem because that's what I've had time for. Short stories will come later... The second part of Lessons with Angels perhaps...
And now without further ado...

Your Ruby Queen Returned

Your queen,
your ruby rose,
the very pinnacle of your existence
returned now
to you.
She comes back
from lands of woe
with new secrets you'll never know.
Inside the center of this rose
a tiny diamond grows and grows.
