A Dose Of Reality Poem by Victoria Gauci

Who would have thought this would happen?
That all my walls would come tumbling down,
No one could have predicted,
That my smile would become a frown,

Never in my wildest imagination,
Would I have foreseen such a painful event,
To even conceive that we wouldn't be friends,
Has been weighing me down like cement,

Sometimes life is filled with emotions,
That knock you right off your horse,
I may stumble at first and stagger,
But I always find proper recourse,

I will miss you, I'll probably cry here and there,
but I guarantee that I will recover,
A few attempts before I stand tall,
After all I am like my mother.
