Life's Twisted Path Poem by PAUL COLVIN

To understand what darkness means, take walks on sunny days
Enjoy a life that’s full and bright, in so many wondrous ways
Feel your heart leap in the air as your head spins like a top
For when love has gone and darkness comes, your heart will surely stop.

A blackness drowns your very heart just like the poisoned chalice
You can’t contain the hate and hurt and all you see is malice
Your life has ended instantly and hysterically you cry
As tears release us from the truth but still you want to die.

There are plenty more fish in the sea or so the saying goes
So get out there and live your life and leave behind your woes,
Satisfy your every need, being selfish isn’t wrong
The walk of life has many twists but you’ll find where you belong.
